as it stands right now - the documents are confidential (thus nda), but any drivers as a result of this are able to be open. this is currently the problem. that means we (openmoko) need to write the drivers - and thus we suffer from the "limited resources" problem and priorities internally that will decide what we do. i am unable to comment one way or another (don't know) about opening up the docs. it may be possible in the future once we have proven to have the basic 2d accel drivers working and a community working to help improve what is there etc.. but for now 3d isn't really an option. i would love to comment on its abilities but can't. remember - what is available on gta-02 release and what may come over time is also different. initial release won't have opengl - but if time and effort prevail it may come later. -- Carsten Haitzler (The Rasterman) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
