Blog post by PulkoMandy on Sun, 2016-01-10 10:45

Hello everyone, welcome to 2016!

After a break in November because of BeGeistert, the monthly reports resume on almost normal schedule (yes, I start with this one being two weeks late!).

Anyway, let’s see what happened during the last two months in Haiku.

Statistics

This report covers the range hrev49750-hrev50011. We just passed the 50000 revisions range, which mmu_man celebrated with a birthday cake icon in hrev50000. 2016 will also be the year of Haiku 15th birthday, but this will happen a bit later, in August.

Detailed statistics will be available soon.

Just a quick report on Capitole du Libre, which actually didn’t happen
 Well, the Toulibre team managed to turn the canceled event (due to the University administration) into a “Bazar du libre” which well, was quite different but interesting nevertheless.

A short report of BeGeistert 029

Blog post by humdinger on Tue, 2015-11-10 18:00

BeGeistert LogoBeGeistert 029 was once more a quite small gathering, with 14 Haiku users attending, plus one father, girlfriend, wife and baby. Puck was there the second year in a row, bringing Colin’s desktop machine with him, which was left behind when Colin moved to New Zealand. (How is Colin these days?) Another new face to BeGeistert: Markus “TwoFX”, one of our finalists in the Google Code-In 2014 and contributer of various patches since. He brought his girlfriend Leslie, who pleasantly doubled the number of attending females.

'Packaging Infrastructure' Final Weekly Report

Blog post by waddlesplash on Fri, 2015-08-07 20:27

Hello everybody (and goodbye, since this is the end of my contract)!

The week has gone very smoothly for me. Dependencies are resolved, builds are created, secondary architectures are handled, and builders can now be updated on-demand by administrators. There probably are a few bugs left to be ironed out, but the bulk of the work is done, and I will have enough time to iron out the last kinks.

Hi there!

The summer is there and it seems some Haiku developers had more time to work on it this month. There were so much news that my article from last month isn't even on the homepage anymore!

A lot has happened since last week. The DHCP bug that has been plaguing Haiku for over a month is now fixed, some various other issues have been cleared up, and the Kitchen has a lot of edge-cases fixed and properly parses dependencies.

Media Kit: New And Old Pieces

Blog post by Barrett on Wed, 2015-07-29 18:00

Hello, it has been some time since my last article, in the meantime I continued to improve things out and since I changed some important parts of the media_kit, I think it’s correct to notify the community about new and ‘old’ features added recently. This is an article mostly written for application developers, but I tried to explain the improvements made with simple words so I hope it will be interesting to anyone.
