Hi Richie, Any post regarding Haiku software is not complete without a reference to Haikuware.com. Can you please include a link to Haikuware.com from wikipedia? Regarding Haiku applications, here is a request and a reminder to please go to Haikuware and list your favorite Haiku/BeOS applications: http://haikuware.com/forum/application-reviews/haiku/beos-application-reviews/Page-2 We are building a list of Best Haiku applications and we need your input! Thanks, Andrew -----Original Message----- From: Richie Nyhus <richienyhus@xxxxxxxxx> To: haiku@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tue, May 11, 2010 3:28 am Subject: [haiku] Haiku on wikipedia G'day I just want to let everyone know that Maxim Sokhatsky and myself [1] have been doing a little work on Wikipedia. Maxim has added a "Haiku Operating System Components" template box [2] that will link between the Haiku's Components (Add-Ons, Kits, Servers and Daemons); sadly there is not much content as wiki deleted some of Maxim's work. I on the other hand created the "Haiku Software" template box [3] that will link between the Software that is included in Haiku's official releases (Applications (Core & Bundled), Binary utilities, Preferences, Developer Tools). We only have a few (Core & Bundled) apps so far; they include: Bootman, Poorman, Tracker, BePDF, Pe, Vision and WebPositive. I am hoping that people will add to wiki and provide basic encyclopedic information (non user guide type stuff). And that each piece of software will have a "Software Infobox" that supplies a logo, screenshot and the license. I also hope that each app will have link to its page on the Haiku User Guide, in order for people to learn how to use it. Tracker's page kind of already meets this standard [4]. I want to add most of the apps when I have time during the winter holidays in the southern hemisphere, but of course anyone can add them before then. At that point I would like like to try to rewrite the main Haiku page on wiki in that time as I think it is shockingly disjointed. I Will be posting this on the forums as well, ~Richie ---------------------- [1] plus a bit of help from The123king.
