Subject: Re: RFC: libdrm repo


So, none of the *BSD code will ever be used??? Does it even work or compile??? I hope so, since I've been using the *BSD code as a basis for a Syllable port. I find the *BSD code a bit easier to read. Have I been wasting my time???

I see that you deleted bsd-core dispite the requests of a number of

Its git, nobody has touched any of it in ages, and none of the BSD
maintainers used it, you can just get it back by branching from the commit before its removal, if you think revival is needed, don't bring back
linux-core when you do please.

I already told the both of you that I was planning to use it on IRC, I just
haven't had time to put anything in.

In addition, he's asking for a repro to libdrm. The way I see it, is there
were two choices:
1) repro to libdrm, add the changes, not piss people off
2) add the changes, repro to libdrm, piss people off

I think we pissed one person off, not people, as I said, there are two
people registered as BSD maintainers for drm code, oga and rnoland,
neither of them cared. I'm not sure what value the codebase has if
neither Free or OpenBSD are going to use it.

Why bother adding code to a common tree that no operating system
has any intention of shipping ever.

Well, I think that it is safe to say that I really don't like things as they are. Under the circumstances however, the code there is useless and
only provided minor historical value.
