Not that I feel motivated, but I still have this BeOS partition lying
around on THIS machine. I may be able to help on BeOS PowerPC (after all
they are source compatible) if that really helps.

Personally I feel very sad about it, but if no one is willing to takeover,
it is better to make this decision, keep the BeOS code and talk about
this largely on BeOS news site to try to motivate some developers.

That would be largely welcome.
