Hi
This text is a copy/paste from the wiki, albeit those posters stand
in a different context, all comments could return in the wiki

It would be good to know the Attila's comment as well since he will do
the advertisement at Linux Tag

Attila wants to emphasize on a product for the end-user, in this sense
"Building" involves "Designing" and the other technical requirements

Should be written: "- For FLOSS software, and operating systems"?

Go for "- Complete specs published" otherwise "- Fully-published specs"

At least: "Timothy N. Miller" if the complete middle name breaks the
page layout (see below)

There's enough place for that

I vote for "Complete published documentation..."

Don't know

Don't know if the public is really aware about OpenGL's versions, so it
would be better to write only:
"- OpenGL implementation with hardware acceleration"
