Yesterday was our big day at Google, and we can say with a good degree of confidence that the Haiku Tech Talk was quite successful. We had a very special guest for this event: former Be Inc. CEO Jean Louis Gassée, not only joined us at Google for our presentation, but also gave a few words of support and encouragement for our project. It was great to have JLG's presence, as well as that of the several ex-Be engineers who showed up for the talk. We were also glad to see JAVA for BeOS developer Andrew Bachman join us for this special event. Take a look at the
pictures taken during the presentation. A video of the full presentation will be posted on the web later this week; we will post the link here when it becomes available.
We are very excited to inform the community that a series of Haiku Tech Talks have been scheduled at Google. Long time Haiku developer and OpenBFS Team leader Bruno Albuquerque (BGA), now working at Google since last year, has made arrangements for these talks, giving us a precious opportunity to introduce the Haiku Project to many Google engineers.
