I am one of those remaining BeOS addicts. I love the BeOS' responsiveness, its short boot-up/shutdown times and its, well, overall feel. But no one can deny the fact: BeOS 5.0.x PE is getting old. Very old, with a kernel build-time of around May 2000.

Be sold BeOS to Palm because Palm needed the multimedia capabilities of BeOS and the know-how of its engineers. Be had nothing to lose as the OEM desktop market was locked out at the time.
A more pressing question I have: Palm, if it is doing its job of protecting its IP, must surely know of this project and others. Has Palm contacted any of the developers of the rogue BeOS distros?
