This potential library - How can we do this? It seems a good
opportunity for the list and lurkers to learn by doing some of the
basic chips, we get a library and hardware becomes more open all at
the same time.
Were/who would store the library? OGP, OHF? another?
OHF is (ahem, I quote) "..a more formal organization to assist in the
business and financial aspects.." so I'd say the OGP.
What license would be most useful ?
I don't believe there's any intention to use these for the actual OGP
design, so the 'Traversal dual license' might be to strict. GPL will
do? Non commercial CC maybe?
added to the glossary.. buffer, frame buffer, and FIFO. Proof
readers welcome.

The discussion at 'Frame Buffer' about color depths might not be
entirely relevant, and the word 'expense' is odd (but that might just
be me). You also seem to imply that modern cards don't support these
color palettes, while it's definitely part of VGA:

Other than that, looks good!

vendor lockin.
