The details are very interesting as there is some consequences on the performances (buffer sharing), code simplicity and compatibility with upstream projects. For instance here are some suggestion on the topics you could cover: - How precisely is Android graphics stack interfaced with libdrm/libgbm and similar libraries in general, why is it done that way, and if applicable why you chose to do it differently, and what are the consequences? - Would the chosen implementation be compatible with Wayland? Would that permit to run Android applications in GNU/Linux. If that is the case what are the consequences for Replicant. - Maybe a bit about the upstream (mesa, etc) status of 3D acceleration, and how it relates to the device we support or could support in the future. - How Android upstream do 3D acceleration, and 2D nowadays. What is used/maintained, what is not. Denis.
