Vassilis 'vasper' Perantzakis, of BeOS Max Edition fame, has announced that he will start work on WalterOS, the Haiku-based version of BeOS Max. "All code developed for this OS will be given to Haiku with the same MIT license 1 month after release at the latest. 50% of all income generated for us from any activity related to this OS (selling of CD and possibly memorabilia) will be donated to Haiku. Donations will not be accepted, please donate to Haiku." The name is not final yet, so feel free to add your own proposals.

"Especially since Access, the rightful owner of the BeOS IP, gave Vasper the green light for BeOSMax. "
Because there wasn't a green light until very recently. Before that it WAS illegal. What we have no is a verbal agreement that it is legal but while a verbal agreement is just as legally binding as a written one it's a bit harder to actually prove it.
