Despair not for ggi is not dead!
It is the foundation for Berlin which will probably get public attention
sooner or later. If I recall well, there had discussions among the hurd
people about using Berlin as the standard windowing system.
I'd really like to get involved, interrested in ggi3d and kgi. I had (and
still have) plan to first contribute a game and other apps but I don't have
much time right now. (maybe within 2-3 months, PhD issues need to get
sorted out a bit)
For now the homepage just need a lifting : organisation, daily news, faqs,
fancy boxes, weekly screenshots,... just what people love!
Someone was supposed to work on this.
Please show up before Adreas's breakdown! :)
