Syllable, AtheOS Reportedly, Kurt Skauen hasn't work on AtheOS for the last 9 months, as he currently taking some long vacations away from his pet project. All this time, a lot of dissapointments have been expressed in the (dying) mailing list about the future of AtheOS, already a (semi-)fork has occured with Cosmoe, but still no word from Kurt if or when he will start working on AtheOS again. Update: It seems that a complete fork has already happen, created by some of the main third party AtheOS developers.

All Be-like OSs

Hmmm, I wonder if this will even be read with this item so old

As someone said, tehre is:
OpenBeOS, BuleEyedOS, YellowTab, Cosmoe, and Syllable

One problem is that all of hese Os' have close but sligtly different API's and they will (hopefully) slowly evolve. I purpose seperating out the GUI and developing a more general GUI so taht compatability can be kept among all these small little bodies and support overall will increase.

My overall vision is for teh desktop something like OBOS/Syllable becomest eh short term desktop OS with a long term goal of GNU/Hurd/Fresco
