It would be nice to put a list of hardware manufacturers on the OBOS site somewhere; something like:
"The following list of companies openly provide the necessary specs for the following pieces of hardware -- support them! :)"
or at least provide some links to sites that publish this sort of information. Anyone know of any?
This is something we at BeUnited will definitely be doing. I am also wondering if we shouldn't select a few preferred manufacturers and make sure that OBOS supports / they support OBOS to the maximum extent possible.
Good idea. What abot Matrox for the graphics stuff. They have the programming docs for their chipsets on the web site. Yesterday I made sure those dox are secure on my harddrive ready for future use. I also have dox for Voodoo 3 chips somewhere but unfortunatly not dox for voodoo 4 and 5. It's not everything but it's a starting point.
I'm interested in development of the OpenGL library but it seems a bit hard to get in touch with the right people. Maybe I have too little patience when dealing with open source people ;-)
