Due to user donations, Haiku, Inc. has enough money to pay Axel through to at least the end of November, as a full, 40-hour-a-week employee. He has also started maintaining a blog of his work.

"And BTW, having said all that, I love Haiku, but for what it really is: a nice, small open source project"
Quant, yet condescending at the same time.
BTW see the "OpenBSD's Network Stack" story above, Haiku is implementing the BSD network stack.

"and with Linux desktop efforts going nowhere"
I beg your pardon?
I keep trying absolutely everything. Smaller projects can be nice, even "sweet", but I don't see them becoming many people's main desktop OS for any foreseeable future.
As to linux I have been using it as my main (99%) OS for years. So have many other people. So it must be "ready for the desktop" somehow. Linux has always supported all my hardware, something that smaller projects have always failed to do, and by far.
And if you are suggesting that linux isn't improving all the time, and at a very fast speed for that matter, that is utter nonsense: it suggests me that you are talking about something you don't know.
