“Is Be planning to release its BeOS operating system to the
open source community? It’s something it has discussed in the past
but never come down on the issue one way or the other.“
“Until recently, perhaps. Be has registered the domain name
openbeos.com (and .org and .net) – and thanks to Register reader
Jim for alerting us to the fact.”
“Now to be fair, Be registered the domains way back last
September, so it looks like the registrations are more a
preparatory move than a statement of intent, but it certainly
suggests that the company is coming round to that way of
thinking.”
