Matt briefly mentions how he got involved with BeOS, which was the day BeOS R5 PE came out. He bought R5 PRO and the BeOS Bible within a week from then and has been around ever since. Have a good one, Matt!

This action is set up by the Campbell Soup Company (official NFL soup sponsor) with the goal to donate up to 5 million cans of Campbell's Chunky soup to food banks across the United States. Currently this number is up to about 625,000 so there's still a long way to go. Click here for Cans!

In response to various points of discussions started after the announcement of BeClan, David Reid clarified that its concept is not comparable to BeUnited or SourceForge; those websites do offer hosting for open source projects, but offer no support and guidance. Because BeClan does, the terms under which a project can become part of BeClan are more strict as well.

Currently I myself am still in the middle of trying to get as much of Zeta translated to Dutch in time for HCC. The operating system itself (Tracker, Deskbar) won't be much of a problem anymore as its translation is almost fully up to date again, but there are a lot of applications still to be translated.

He tells was introduced to BeOS during the R3 era but did not have any PPC-based machines. It took him till BeOS R5 before he tried R5 PE, and as a result bought R5 Pro. He does not have too much expectations about BeOS at the moment, and is careful in expressing his opinion about Zeta, which seems to be that he feels yellowTAB chose featurism over usefulism, although they are doing a good job trying to fix flaws, and making a good move allowing people to experience Zeta themselves.

Also nice to mention is that the number of registrants has nearly reached 250, and that there are some real neat pictures from BeGeistert 011 in their Gallery. Unfortunately that section is members-only. You'd have to sign in. Read the comments if you want to know how you can do that.
