I'd agree on that. As some of you know already, I have a fulltime job at ATI's Linux team now. I'll continue being active in the DRI and X communities as time permits. If you have any development related questions or suggestions about the proprietary ATI drivers, please don't hesitate to contact my manager Matthew Tippett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and CC me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Earthling Michel DÃnzer | Debian (powerpc), X and DRI developer Libre software enthusiast | http://svcs.affero.net/rm.php?r=daenzer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
