It’s been a while since I last posted a summary of Weekly Haiku updates and lots of work has been done in the meantime. Some improvements have been made to configuration menus in terms of font sensitivity; BMessage Version 4 is now complete – in a nutshell, it’s faster, more stable, and stays crunchier in milk; there has been work done to improve speed and compatibility of Kernel Ports (low low level interprocess communication mechanism); and lastly Haiku HDD images now include the libraries libGL and mp4_reader – great news for Quake and AAC fans.

On a related note, the webmaster of Weekly Haiku has posted that he’s won’t be able to make regular updates for the next month or so, due to a busy university schedule. He’s put out a call for any volunteers who are interested in posting updates on the site, so if you follow the Haiku SVN logs and are willing to write a brief summary, head over and volunteer. Thanks for a great resource, Danny – continue to post your summaries, and I will continue to summarize them even further.
