My impression was that much of the BeOS couldn't be released - it used tools 
licensed from other vendors. So I'm assuming that OpenBeOS will be done from 
scratch? Hrmm... Looking at the website:
   http://open-beos.sourceforge.net/

that appears to be the case. What will they do when they hit the 100Meg size 
limit at sourceforge..?

In any event, I never saw a C BeOS program - the toolkit was C++. At this 
point, I don't think that Euphoria will compile under C++. Robert, please 
correct me if I'm wrong here! But that should change soon.

I don't know what niche they're planning on filling, but it looks interesting.
