What Color Goes With Burgundy

Mini-Interview with Oliver Tappe

Oliver Tappe has the 18th Thank You Award won and a few questions answered in a mini-interview in Haiku goods.

How old are you and what do you do for money?

I am 40 and work as a freelance software developer.

means to the nomination, you had localizations in Haikus POSIX layer integrated. How hard (or easy) was it?

As usual when one focuses on one thing you do not know all the details, was (and is) more work than originally thought. The difficulties lie in the details of Haikus localization Backend (ICU) to friemeln so that they meet the expectations of the POSIX API exactly. Often the problems arise because it is de facto standards (things that simply requires the software in a certain way), which are in the POSIX standard but does not specify times.

What would you facilitate the work of haiku?

I miss most haiku a working Java Runtime Environment for Eclipse use. In Haiku, I use Pe to develop, which is ok, but nowhere can compete with the rich features of Eclipse.

What interesting, volume, series, etc. would you like to recommend?

Of the current cases is "Teen Dream" to the U.S. band "Beach House" very well with me. Would also like the crime novels of the British Sophie Hannah try. Your books are very stylish and nerve-crush at the same time, exactly what I expect from a good thriller. :-)
