Regarding your work on Intel KMS it is indeed important to get more people to provide testing and feedback. Maybe Nikola at least will be able to do so but it would be nice to expand the circle ;) When I have the time I will upload kernel dumps and logs I collected and post a message to the ML to keep you updated.

Media like Phoronix and such could then pick it up. This good work needs some public relations style posting rather than just Martin's posts with the scant few replies. -- Ram ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss

With the newly updated website (though not perfect), the intent was to provide more information on the current status and highlight the need of contributions in specific areas (testing, packaging): this is slowly moving forward. Alexander's, Ken's and Martin's progresses are not as visible as they should be. There are several levels of information: - users should get updates on the news pages: http://www.openindiana.org/category/news/ - contributors should be able to understand where help is needed on the roadmap page: http://www.openindiana.org/overview/roadmap/ - developers use the wiki to track their progress: http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Hipster So the website's purpose shoud be two-fold: - give general information for users - provide entry points to the wiki for contributors/developers As long as people have to dig several hours to find information I do not think we will be getting any feedback. Although this is not enough, I added: - an "Intel KMS driver" page to the wiki: http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Intel+KMS+driver - a bullet point to the roadmap: http://www.openindiana.org/overview/roadmap/ Best regards Aurelien ___ openindiana-discuss mailing list openindiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
