BeOS & Derivatives The Haiku project has reached a very important milestone. Bruno G. Albuquerque (bga) wrote the following note attached to a commit a few moments ago: "vnode_path_to_vnode() now returns B_NOT_A_DIRECTORY instead of B_NOT_ALLOWED as expected by POSIX programs. This allowed me to compile Haiku under itself without any hacks at all, so I guess this means that now we are officially self-hosting!" The official announcement can be found in the mailing list. In addition, there's a new Haiku alpha 1 status update.

Enormous congrats to all!!

This is quite an achievement for this pre-alpha OS, and a good stress test, knowing that the source is around 120000 files and ~800MB (fresh svn checkout).
