Haiku becoming an easier target for porters |
 |
The Haiku project has published its monthly newsletter for May which contains updates and fixes introduced into Haiku's code. Along with navigation improvements to the software centre and enabling the remote desktop tool to reuse ports (reducing wait times), the project's newsletter mentions a milestone in development. "This month was a bit lighter than usual, it seems most of the developers (myself included) were busy with other things. However, HaikuPorts remained quite active: most months, at this point, there are more commits to HaikuPorts than Haiku, and sometimes by a significant margin, too (for May, it was 52 in Haiku vs. 258 in HaikuPorts!). I think overall this is a sign of Haiku’s growing maturity: the system seems stable enough that the porters can do their work without uncovering too many bugs in Haiku that interrupt or halt their progress." This suggests the Haiku operating system is reaching maturity, resulting in developers spending more time porting open source software to its platform.
