interview

An extensive interview with Haiku developer - Paweł Dziepak.

I have interviewed Paweł Dziepak during my private conversation with him, on polish Haiku IRC channel (#haiku-pl, Freenode). We talked for two nights, on 28 and 29 of April 2014. Paweł is known to the community as pdziepak, I am Premislaus. There are many great people involved with Haiku Project, everyone is worth interviewing - I will try to do that in the future (Ingo, Axel, Stephan, beware!). Why pdziepak this time? The big role in the decision played ease of communication, since we are the same nationality, we talk pretty often with each other on IRC channel. Besides, he is an excellent programmer, engineer with vision! Despite his young age, he doesn't do mobile apps, his field of interest are kernel architectures. Unfortunately, he didn't have current photo and he said no when I proposed him to take a stylish one, either selfie or in an elevator.

We had deep and sincere conversation about Haiku Project and Community condition. I also asked him about Open Source movement in general. The part of that I present to you below:

The FLOSS Weekly (Free Libre Open Source Software) podcast is featuring Haiku in episode 120. Hosts Randal Schwartz and Aaron Seigo talk with Haiku developer Ryan Leavengood and contributor Niels Sascha Reedijk about the origins of Haiku, its purpose, the current status of the project and the potential for the future. Of course, alpha 2 is shamelessly being plugged!

PC Active: Haiku, the rebirth of BeOS

News posted by nielx on Fri, 2007-09-14 19:04

The Dutch magazine PC-Active published an article on Haiku in their October issue, based on an interview I gave a few months ago. We are even on the cover! From the article: "Years ago, the alternative operating system BeOS had a small, but very loyal group of supporters. They had a strong belief in the future of 'their' operating system. In 2001, the company behind BeOS ceased to exist. Now, half way through 2007, there is a new group enthousiastic followers. Haiku followers, the reincarnation of BeOS." The article mentions the current status of the project, the history and the open source nature.

If you live in The Netherlands or in Belgium, it's a worthwile read!
