Thanks for another nice summary!

WRT the xterm thingy, when I ssh into my media player and start nano, it says: "Error opening terminal: xterm-256color."
Who’s to blame, the media player (xios ds) or Haiku?

is remote app_server included by default now or does it still need to be compiled in?

This would be because the media player does not have the appropriate entry in its termcap database.

export TERM=xterm

(before ssh) should avoid the problem.

Thank you for your hard work and for keeping us informed on what happens.

Some time ago I started to use Haiku more (x86_gcc2 on laptop and x86_64 on desktop) and I can say, Haiku gets better, more stable and with more useful software available.

Please, do not hesitate to go forward, even if this breaks something sometimes. I really like the direction Haiku has and the progress it made recently. For now, Haiku is the easiest to install and manage OS I know of (and I use Linux, macOS, Windows, Solaris, FreeBSD besides Haiku). The project is really well managed and the technical decisions are really well weighted. Keep doing the great OS!
