Cool :-)

Yeah, I think we can manage that. The directory structure so far has no
project specific directories. I have XML databases in one dir, python
scripts in another, and staticdb stuff in third dir.

Is it only the test app or would you put also the radeon XML files in
Rules-ng CVS?
Do you think they could all live together mixed with Nouveau files?
Maybe we could even use partially the same XML files, e.g. the standard
VGA registers, that are accessed via indexed registers?
Are those not the same for both radeon and Nouveau?
I also assume that at some point you want (if not already done so) fork
some of the tools or python scripts to do the style your project uses.

I do not have rights to give that. Marcheu?
It is ok with me.

Whatever you add yourself new files, play as you wish. If you need to
modify the common tools or something else, I'd like to know in advance.
