Hi all, This is basically a me too response to Zacks mail,
I'm still going to do some work on the external tree as a) Novell aren't working on EGL b) I'm ignoring Novells contribution until it is contributed. You can't hack on a promise (something I've attempted to do for 3 months - I've asked davidr for newer code in Aug, Sept and Oct), lucky enough the r300 driver took some fixing to get to a place where it'll even run Xglx... I'm also worried about proposed changes to things like Mesa will have to go through the proper channels (Brian) and will take some discussion (especially new GLX extensions). These sort of architectural decisions are not something that everyone will go "ah Novell said it is okay, we'll just put it in the tree", and I would rather these things are discussed in the open with people who know the stuff a lot better than I or Novell. I don't see what you can lose about having these discussions now rather than later, in fact you'll lose traction later as you'll have to maintain any GLX extensions you do privately for a long time if you don't go and get some community approval to have them in Mesa. Dave. _______________________________________________ Desktop_architects mailing list [email protected] https://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop_architects
