Still learning....


I just figured out how to get a clean page out on the blog.
Things take time to learn.

Goin' public

Well, we are fast approaching D-day for Solaris open source.  

I have to admit that I'm in two minds on this:

  1. Like showing your high school class pictures around.  No idea what people will think.  
     Geek or Cool.
  2. On the other hand, I can't wait to see what people will do with the code.  Should be fun!

So, I guess we will be pushing the Sun version of Xorg out latter this year.  There will be
some changes there, but most of the goodies are already back at Xorg now.  The other
day we (X group) where at the OpenSource user group, someone asked if we are planning
to publish our Frame Buffer Power Management code.  At this time I'm considering
putting out via Xorg first.  I want some review of the design first.  You'd think its
easy to turn off the video board.... right!

oh yeah, I gotta work now.
