Raspberry Pi and Chromium are ports. Tier 1 supported hardware is the real focus for device drivers and hardware platform support. Web browsers like IceWeasel work well enough. IP webcams (@3deyes) and 3D hardware acceleration (@X512 and others) are established working side projects using Haiku.

Release management (@waddlesplash and others) will crown the next victor…

Usually, a snapshot is announced (aka dinner bell announcement) for pre-testing the next OS release. You can boot and test the snapshot to foresee imminent issues before the official release.

You can do most of this boot-to-desktop and hardware device testing with the latest nightly release…
