Stuart,
I'm wondering if you can schedule a session at X dev conf where the TG
people attending can give a brief overview of what we've been working on
recently and where it's going.
It's going to be informal in the extreme, but I think it's pretty
topical given the relevence of in particular the Mesa/DRM memory manager
that we've been working on for many of the things that the X people have
been wanting from Mesa lately...
Off the top of my head, we'd talk about:
- Memory manager
- Dynamic AGP mapping with TTM's
- Userspace prototype memory manager in i915 driver.
- Plans for full (ie kernelspace) version.
- Extending to cards with dedicated video ram
- EXT_framebuffer_objects
- other much-requested features finally possible
- low-impact migration for DDX drivers
- Recent i945GM driver updates
- Accelerated RandR
- Other neat stuff
- General Mesa futures
It'll just be us standing around talking, there is no presentation as
such, though we might use a whiteboard or if we get some spare time a
couple of slides. I'm hoping audience questions will carry us through
the allotted time...
Keith
