Hi there !!

As i have seen in a recent post, there is no place where you can find haiku logos, photos, ... for journalists.
If a journalist wants to talk about Haiku and insert a logo, a picture of mickeal or Axel, he will have to google and not find high quality ones.

Haiku Localization

Now that a first release of Haiku is not behind the horizon anymore (next Christmas I heard), I wondered if the time is ripe for localizing Haiku?

to clarify: kBeLogoBits is the graphic you see when you click on Deskbar to open the main Deskbar menu.

For R5, this is the blue and red "BeOS".

Appearantly there are spammers around again... In my forum I implemented a cheap hack to fight automated spammers that create accounts and post replies.

The annoucement for WalterCon 2005 sounds inviting.

Where can I find a list of the activities and event topics?

Also, are there any special attendees or VIP people in attendance that can speak to activities in the Haiku/BeOS community?

GCC 2.93 vs. 4.0+

Forum thread started by pagefault on Thu, 2005-07-07 02:07

A long time from now, Haiku will move to GCC 4.x. What are the difficulties to this? Does this simply mean modifying code here and there or a big rewrite. I know that moving to 4.x will break compatibly will old BeOS software but are there significant benefits? Is it possible to have Haiku compile on 2.93 and 4.x at the same time depending if you want speed or compatibilities? It seems to me when Haiku is compiled on GCC 4.x you get almost "free" speed when compared to the work needed.
