“migrating a program or library I wrote for GNU/Linux or FreeBSD to Haiku is really very simple, and only slightly different in the Window$ case. …Porting apps from/to any of the “Unix-like” systems is literally seamless, and that includes graphical applications.”
Interesting post. Since it is relatively easy to port apps, is there an argument for releasing a “developer” edition of Haiku - with all available programming languages, IDEs, compilers, libraries, tools, documentation, etc installed and ready to go? This might encourage those who want to dabble in porting, and eventully contribute to development.
