So what?
- Koshkin 6y agoBeta means "not production-ready." (10+ years is an awfully long time for something to become production ready from the commercial standpoint.)
- slantyyz 6y agoIf you want to count back to its initial development, we're going back to 2001, almost two decades. I remember being optimistic/hopeful about the project in its earliest days (following its progress on OSNews). I wanted to see something like BeOS on x86 hardware after seeing how fast it ran on my first PC (after a long stint with Apple IIs and Macs). A lot has changed in those 19 years, but still, kudos to the team for sticking at it.
- thesuitonym 6y ago>to become production ready from the commercial It's not a commercial product. Even if it was, what ever happened to releasing quality software? Sure, Google and Facebook release new builds constantly but everybody hates them. There used to be a time when a new version of software meant new features, not new bugs, and it seems like Haiku hearkens back to that time.
