BeOS was never released as open-source, Haiku is a clean-room reimplementation, with some very different internals. Development started in 2001/2002, so more than a bit younger than Linux.

I guess continuation could be read to mean the code was open sourced and development continued. Sorry I was unclear about that. But the design and lineage of the system and many of the developers on it extend back through BeOS.
