June 1st Thank You Award


Time flies by! It's already time to think about some new candidates for our Thank You Award.

Thankfully, Humdinger reminded me of this month's award, and he's suggested the following:

1. Michael Lotz (mmlr)
He's working on many, mostly low-level, parts for Haiku. As Haiku's compiler guru he kept gcc2 usable for so long and was paving the way to the recent gcc2/4 mixture. Recently he enabled OHCI and is now working on the last missing features to complete Haiku's USB support.

2. Gerald Zajac
He's working on a very important aspect of the OS: drivers. He recently provided a driver to power S3's Trio 3D, Trio64, Virge and Savage cards. Next he'll work on ATI's Rage128 and Mach64. With his work many shelved computers could make a nice comeback with Haiku.

3. François Revol (mmu_man)
I'm not sure what the current state of Haiku regarding ppc is, but I regularly see commits by mmu_man regarding this architecture. I'm sure if Haiku ever does make it to ppc, it'll largely be thanks to him. He's also been steadily working on a usb webcam addon, amongst other things like posix compatibility.

4. Stefano Ceccherini (aka Jack Burton), for his work on: BMenus and related classes, Terminal's revamp, and the rest of his work.

5. Tako Lansbergen (0033) For his excellent work on bringing a very much needed native development IDE to Haiku (Niue).

Please leave us some comments with who you'd like to see here as a nominee (with why you believe so). The poll will begin on May 27th.
