I disagree, how are the devs at Xorg supposed to know that this is an
issue if no one tells them? I know this particular issue is very well
known in the Xorg community but nevertheless, someone should file a
bug outlining what E17 needs from Xorg in order to use openGL. Call
it a feature request or whatever but Xorg needs to be informed, even
if all they say is "Sorry, can't help you" at least it will be
officially documented. This is the way FOSS works.
Somehow I can't imagine that the Xorg devs are unaware that everyone
wants GL acceleration and true transparency(: On other, less widespread
issues, I agree with you, but I know that if I were an Xorg dev, I
would have been tired of people asking about those two things about a
year ago.

They probably are sick and tired of it. I would be if I was them. But
that doesn't matter. The FOSS way is for *someone* to inform them of
E17's needs. If they choose to work on that or not is up to them but if
no one ever tells them E17's needs then they absolutely *WON'T* work on
it at all.
ps. you sent this to me personally instead of to the list in general.
I'm forwarding your email to the list, I hope that's OK.
