Subject: Re: The X.Org Google Summer of Code 2008
I'm interested in doing a project in the DRI realm.
DRI
* GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap
o Update to latest spec
o More efficient implementation, ideally texturing directly
from offscreen pixmaps
* Integrate properly with Composite, in particular, render to
redirected windows correctly
* Port new memory manager changes to drivers other than i915
* make the X server's Xsync extension use DRM vblank waits or
signals (really a DRI/X cross project)
o rough patch is already available
o developer would get good exposure to server and DRM internals
I don't know the extent of each project (timewise) so I don't know if I
should just pick one of the bullet points. I'd love to get "good
exposure" to the server and DRM internals.
