SkyOS has received a few updates. First, the new theme engine makes it possible to completely theme SkyOS, without having to write even a single line of code. Furthermore, with only minor changes, WindowBlinds and MS Visual Style (WindowsXP or Vista) themes can be converted to the SkyOS theme format. Additionally, the Viewer (file browsing application) has a new feature called 'NavigationView', which makes it possible to possible to navigate to your devices and manage files easier and faster.

TeX is "frozen" which means that development stopped
and only bug fixes occur now (has been decades since a bug was found in TeX).
Yet...new varaint of TeX are being developed :
XeTeX supporting unicode
(it is at version 0.997...don't know if there will ever be a version 1.0 : it has been between version 0.95 and version 0.997 for a few years)
and LuaTeX (the future of TeX) supporting :
_unicode
_with integrated Lua
_ with revamped internals (that can be overloaded) and callbacks
Actually in Beta version
AS for myself, I don't use TeX anymore as I need Etex features or unicode.
For now, I stick with XeTeX but I'll switch with Luatex some time in the future...
My conclusion is...finished products like TeX are "dead" (cause we want more, limits are frustrating) however great they are...

Please review your comment and replace SkyOS with your OS or application of choice and reread.
When is anything ever finished? If Microsoft was finished with windows, they wouldn't have invested millions into windows update, if apple was finished with the iPhone why did they just release the 1.1.1 Firmware? Hell they just put out Leopard and its in the same state as it was in beta. When is a product final? When they ship it? when the stop supporting it? Does it really matter? Each piece of software has its own development style.
I hereby deem your comment irrelevent.
