I finally got around to subscribing. Some of you may recognise my handle from the forum (noisetonepause).
Hi.
want to say how truly awesome it is that you lot have almost finished in five years something that all the GNU's horses and all the GNU's men haven't been able to create in twenty, namely an OS that real people will actually enjoy to use. That's fantastic, amazing and incredible. All in 1GB of code.
This is your own opinion - bear in mind that GNU/Linux is a great enterprise level OS, and a good desktop one too. I should know this much, I use it as my main OS for more than 2 years.
My interest in Haiku is mainly for it's dream API and overall robustness as a media OS and also for other uses (if the Haiku teams build it, develeopers will come).
A lot of people can't handle Linux's way of doing things, but if you can it is the best thing since sliced bread.
Having said this, GNU's people haven't created just the userland tools for Linus Torvald's kernel. A lot of developers on virtually all architectures and operating systems use some GNU tool, even Haiku is built on GCC (GNU Compiler Collection).
suggestion/RFC for a new server (notification server) that I think would be a great addition to Haiku, but I don't know where to put it - wiki (where?)? here? GE? forum? sock drawer?
Take care, Niklas
Keep an open mind (have no idea about this question, sorry)! Take care,
