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.
