Hello. As a teenager, I read about BeOS in a Finnish computer magazine. It sounded really cool, so when my parents told me they were going to buy a new family computer, I asked the computer store for a PC that could run BeOS. The new computer had Windows on it, but I was able to run BeOS with the Windows installer. I never really became a BeOS user, but there was something attractive in it and thus I've been secretly following Haiku development from the shadows. I'm happy to see you on this list and I hope fruitful co-operation will arise.

The current version should be more general than some older editions. Iirc the clipboard management in BeOS was fairly simple, so it might be possible for Haiku to respect the specification (at least to some degree). Please give me your opinion on the matter. The current version is available from http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2007-November/008985.html --Toni _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
