I think that BeOS would have "wiped the floor" and dominated all other OS's if
they had continued development. I also suspect that BeOS's continued
closed-source status has been (and perhaps still is) influenced somehow by
competitors. I love Haiku and use it on a daily basis, but imagine how much
farther Haiku would be if the BeOS source were open.

i think haiku can be the best Os ever, but we are waiting for that beta, but i
really think it is the best option or alternative to linux windows ...

With all the discussion recently on this list about the status of the
Haiku project and when it will finally go Beta, I just wanted to take
the time to thank all the Haiku volunteers who are working hard to keep
this open source project going.
