Well, there are lots of things we want do document.  There is some old
(but not stale) stuff on there about things like OGA, the VGA
controller, address spaces, etc.  We should have that somewhere.

Ok. We could move some to the OGA page - I am not sure how much should
be kept. I am not sure where the VGA controller address spaces go.
Perhaps we want a drivers page?

OK.

This page is horribly out of date and needs to be replaced.  Any
suggestions?  If not, remind me (or Attila), and we'll replace it with
a stub containing instructions and a link to the wiki.

Perhaps we want all the info about OGP in the wiki and just info about
the mailing lists on that page.

Tech Source is, you might say, a friendly bystander.  There are lots
of ways in which Traversal and Tech Source have completely different
goals, which helps me, Howard, and Andy with conflicts of interest we
might otherwise have.  Moreover, they've done nothing at all to impede
our work.  They've been very generous compared to how many other
graphics companies (that might see us as potential competitors) would
have been.  The current management there is careful but progressive
and open-minded.  Not that I am comparing myself to Linus, but I may
have a situation with Tech Source that is better than his was at
Transmeta.  (Maybe.  I'm just guessing.)

I wonder if that belongs on Traversal's web page. Or we could add that
info under your details in the project members page. They deserve
mention.

Traversal Technology has two relationships to the OGP:

(1) From the PoV of the OGP, Traversal is sub-component.  Some OGP
members (who are still OGP members) have formed Traversal as a means
to further the project's goals.  The same is true for the OHF.

(2) From the PoV of the old-school corporate world, Traversal is a
scrappy start-up that has found a clever way to leverage volunteer
labor to drastically reduce engineering and marketing costs.

I'm not sure how much of any of this should be mentioned anywhere on
the wiki.  I mean, how do we state two orthogonal mission statements
without people getting confused?


excellent - something like this should go in.

It's hard for me to tell how GOOD my lessons are.  The ideal situation
would be to have a list full of experts on Verilog so that more people
can maintain this.

anyone want to give it a tidy or formating - feel free. There is
plenty of work.

Well, we do need the simulator...
;-)
