Hello,
Nice to hear about the future 4.0 plan. i agree with most of what you propose.
I have a question conerning the 3D stuff.
Glx will be included in XF 4.0, but this is a point that will most assuredly

In fact, (if i understood this issue correctly, which i am still

I have been getting a fair amount of mail about this so I thought I would
