Hi Guys, Not sure if it appropriate to post this on this mailing list or not. But the list has been inactive for a while now so I thought why not. As a former regular contributor to papercuts I figure I can get away with it this once. I thought I would post here about a small project I have started on Indiegogo trying to get funding to improve the open source graphics drivers o Linux. Over the years many have brought up the idea of crowd funding open source graphics driver development but not much has come of it. A few days ago I setup a small scale experiment to see if it could actually work. Rather than go all out trying to raise a huge sum of money I have setup a small project on indiegogo as a type of proof of concept to see whether a larger project would really be viable. To make things a bit more interesting if I reach my stretch goal I will dedicate some of the time towards creating some documentation on Mesa based on my understanding of Mesa throughout development. This would hopefully be useful to others considering contributing but with no idea where to start. To see more information on what the project is all about please follow the link below to my indiegogo campaign. Thanks for your time, and feel free to ask me any questions you may have. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/he...utor/x/2053460 I'm also interested in feedback on my campaign and what you think I can improve. Oh and feed free to ask me any questions. Cheers, Tim _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~papercuts-ninja More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
