Fresh news from OpenBeOS Storage Kit team:
 
"The fearless Storage Kit team, this time supported by Gabe Yoder, strikes again. Milestone 3 of our four-phased registrar development schedule has been reached.
 
Newly implemented are the application roster features application launching and watching, recent application/document support and message broadcasting, and the BMessageRunner and BClipboard classes.
 
Let alone one method, BRoster::ActiveApp(), which requires our own working app server, the entire part of the BeOS API that depends on interactions with the registrar is completely implemented. For the next and last milestone the two missing registrar services, the automatic background updating of the MIME database and the system shutdown, need to be added. For the time being they are not crucial, and it does make more sense to tackle them, when we can run applications under our operating system, so we postpone the remaining tasks and, in the meantime, get some other work done."
 
Yeah! That means it's so-so-so-close to have fully functional registrar! but it will be finished when other, also important, parts will be finished too... argh i hate waiting for fun ;]
