Is the i830 driver considered to be dead, should any future work go

just like to get a semi-official idea? if so we need to import the up to
date DDX into the DRI tree and start releasing the snapshots for the i915
driver..

Sounds good to me. At this point perhaps we should just not worry about updating the DRI tree and just switch to using the XORG tree for DDX. it's a lot of hassle to have to maintain both trees and then moves changes back and forth. New dri DDX related work can happen on a branch maybe. Just a thought...


I think it is a great idea if the DRI CVS tree moves into X.org, either on Xorg CVS head, or on a branch - either would be better than having so many different repositories to track, and merging would probably be much smoother also, and could possibly be done more often as well.

Please bring this up on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list if it hasn't already (haven't checked my xorg folder). The new release is looming on the near horizon for late August or thereabouts, so it would be nice if this change could occur before then.

Yes, my hope is now that people will just do their X work on the X.org CVS repository (like regular X developers - the old DRI/X distinction was pretty artificial) and the DRI tree can be archived.
