I took the liberty of copying my answer to the chromium mailing list.

To clarify:=20

- there is no communication between my video driver and Chromium yet.
- I did not modify the Chromium code
- If the video driver was approperiately modified to establish the
necessary communication with Chromium, then most likely very few changes
would be required to Chromium.

I'm hoping that this code will find a new home in the Chromium community
and eventually grow into a "Chromium  Windows video driver".

Well, we could put a tarball of your code on the website/download page=20
and see what happens.

That would be wonderful!

Have you considered making your code a separate project?

Just as DMX is separate from Chromium, perhaps your "DMX for Windows"=20
should be too.

Can your video driver be used without Chromium and serve a useful=20
purpose?  If so, then it sounds like it should be an independent project.

Unfortunally I don't have the time to work on this project, but I
thought it was a shame not to at least offer what I've done so far to
anyone interested in taking it further.

Perhaps Chromium could store the source + binaries, and create a "help
wanted" posting?

Nothing comes to mind(except as a testing tool of e.g CygWin X server on
multiple monitors).
