However, one question: OpenGraphics, or OpenHardware? I anticipate
that once OGD starts selling, people are going to (a) want to do
non-graphics things with it and (b) want to start similar projects
(e.g. RAID controllers, novel networking devices, etc, etc). We're
going to have some considerable expertise associated with the
foundation, and we don't want to scare interested people away from us
by giving the impression that we're about graphics and graphics only...
I'd opt for open hardware. Initially this would only be the Open
Graphics Project. Addition of new projects would require certain
conditions be met, though I haven't given a whole lot of though to what
those conditions would be, along with vote from the board of directors
to add the project. I would think requiring something other than a
simple majority, perhaps an absolute two thirds majority, would be
required to add a new project.
Anyway, if there's any help I can give from this side of the Atlantic,
please let me know.
I'm still pondering over everything that needs to be done. I'm sure,
just like with everything else, there will be plenty of work to go
around. Thanks for the offer.
