No, everything was announced at time.

FreeBSD port of GGI on top of the libvgl. The idea was to get used
to GGI philosophy before starting the KGI side. I realize now that
they are really different. Anyway, although really difficult, GGI
is a good start to understand graphics programming.
Unfortunatly, after writing FreeBSD input for libgii
with full modifiers / keymap support I realized that XGGI does not
take advantage of it :( I mean, with a simple program I get the
right keycodes and characters (correct keymap / accents) from libgii but
with XGGI, I have a standard qwerty keyboard.

I'm investigating KGI and trying to figure out how it will fit into
FreeBSD. Also, I have to get some supported hardware for this.
I bet on Rodolphe's Gx00 driver for now.

Actually port KGI to FreeBSD and find a way to provide a linux framebuffer
compatible interface on top of KGI. Should not be too hard!
