A developer not familiar with Mesa raised funds on indiegogo

[shirish]

Hi all,
A little backgrounder first. A certain Timothy Ancery made a indiegogo fund-raiser to do a Mesa extension and also write some developer documentation (as mesa is under-documented as per quite a few devs.).

Here is the link to the fund-raiser he asked for :-

As can be seen he was successful in raising the required amt. While he wasn't able to make the stretch goals but still good.

He did the required work and there's still a bit of todo left as per his notes but overall done :-

https://github.com/tarceri/mesa-debug/w ... cs-Library

The code can be found at :-

He also pushed them in the mesa-dev list in form of patches as well as improved on the patches in :-

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/m ... hread.html
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/m ... 43849.html

Finally they were accepted and signed off by :-

http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/m ... 44015.html

and the commits were pushed in by Brian Paul of vmware :-

This is sharing so maybe some of the more FOSS devs. can also help improve the state of graphics as well as earn a bit.

@Mods please put it the right corner if this is not good.
