True, but you have to admit, the source code isn't the only thing you would get if all of the IP was available & opensourced. You'd also get the right to use the BeOS name. There would no longer be a reason to check to see if an app or driver was compiling for either Haiku or BeOS, you could just bump the version number up to whatever version should come after 5.1d(Dano).

Well really it's not needed anymore, Haiku is already on par or even better than BeOS in most places. > I do have a solo side project that I'm working on & OSS will be very > important for that in the future.
