We're even earlier than that. At the moment, we're working on getting the board ready to sell. Then we need to get the RTL properly organized so that people can do dumb framebuffer. Then VGA's next on the agenda. Of course we want to do the 3D, but there are lots of things ahead of it. Can we interest you in some of these things? Otherwise, perhaps we can look ahead at some of the 3D stuff, but be aware that anything 3D-related won't be used soon and is subject to change. > I've been browsing through the webpage and seen some roadmaps, but I'm still > lacking > a overview of what's to be done, and what I could help out with ? We've had more than one company ask about our VGA implementation. If we had it finished, we could have already licensed it and used the revenue to accelerate our other work. In a nutshell, we need to get all of the logic that would go into the XP10 for a prototype OGA coded, tested, and working. > Are there any forms of dependency graphs over work to be done found anywhere > on the wiki ? No, but this sounds like a wise thing to make. Can you help with this? Oh, yeah, documentation is something we need more of. :) > The mandatory "about my myself": > I know my way around Linux/C/assembly, being a computer engineer.

Moving from either language to the other requires some adjustment, but not at any fundamental level. > Haven't had my coffee yet, so please forgive me for my lousy writing.
