Most of the posts,  circle back to the first question.. what is the job of
the board, and what is the goal of X.org. it will be hard for X.org to move
forward without a clear vision.

   

1) What would you like to see  X, and X.org look like in 3-5 years.

2) What is the ideal relationship with Freedesktop? 

3)  What about sponsors, Sponsorship $ has dropped precipitously  since
X.org was reformed. Do you think that X.org should have  sponsors anymore?
Why/why not. If your company is not a sponsor why should anyone be. 


also I wish someone could explain to me, why  company(s) donating and
pooling  money to solve a particular problem causes a problem,  while a
single company doing the engineering does not cause a problem.  -and how can
small companies contribute if they can't afford full time staff.

      

Thanks,


Peter Winston
