AlienSolder pointed me to this link over at SourceForge. And while it isn’t uncommon to see empty BeOS projects over there, it is uncommon to see one that was started on Dec 7 of 2001. Intrigued, I emailed Neil Johnson for more information about the plans of the Honeycomb team. “Read More” to see what he had to say about the plans for Honeycomb and his view on the future of BeOS - specifically OpenBeOS - in a sort of psuedo-interview.
I think it’s very good to see that some good, professional apps are still in the works [and might I mention, finally, for some of them ]. Seems there are plenty of developers that think that we’ll be around for some time to come, enough so to continue, and start, huge projects on a “dead” OS with no future. Hmmmm… maybe it’s not so dead quite yet, ya think?!

Well, since I have already brought up the “fearless leader” and “nipple” references… TotallyBe has a link to some more nostalgia for you - pics of Joe Palmer’s BeBox and other odds and ends. Don’t know who Joe Palmer is? See below posting. Enjoy.
The guys and gals working on OpenBeOS are trudging along, gaining momentum, and still managing to deliver their regular newsletter. This one is longer than normal, and has a decent amount of code in it, very reminicent of old Be Newsletters. Just makes the nipples hard again (see below post ).
OpenBeOS definitely has potential, and needs the support of everyone left in our community. Get over there and do whatever you can to help it succeed!
