Haiku

Mailing List: http://www.freelists.org/list/haiku

We are a project dedicated to the creation of a new open source operating system designed from the ground up for desktop computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku aims to provide users of all levels with a personal computing experience that is simple yet powerful, and free of unnecessary complexities. Haiku is supported by Haiku Inc., a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization founded with the purpose of promoting our project.
