[Dri-devel] The Weather Channel Funding Radeon 8500 Support

[Jens O. <je...@tu...>]

Good news for Radeon 8500 owners.  We have posted this announcement on
our TG web site:

"The Weather Channel is funding TG to develop an open source 3D DRI
driver for the ATI Radeon 8500 graphics card. The driver will be
released to the XFree86 Project around Q4 of 2002, to be distributed to
the public in future versions of the XFree86 X Server."

We'll be starting this project right away and using the DRI repository
for our open development.

Regards,
Jens
