This is completely OT, but anyway: ATI will not open their existing drivers,
rather, they will provide the community with a newly-written basic 2D
driver for their current chips and with sufficient open information to
enhance that one. So they're not opening their driver, they're opening the
specs (for which they are to be commended, IMO).

Anno.
