Red Hat Summit 2007, Day 2: Red Hat Exchange and interesting presentations (Linux.com)

[Posted May 11, 2007 by ris]

Linux.com covers day 2 at the Red Hat Summit. "In addition to the seven official tracks, this year's Red Hat Summit has an unofficial eighth track for the press. Day 2 saw two official announcements: Red Hat Exchange and a new partnership with Sybase. In addition to covering the press conferences, I had time to sit in on some interesting presentations."

I know it's off-topic, but please oh please could the guys present at the
RH Summit pressure ATI/AMD's official about the announced ATI drivers ?
What's their scope, what's the ETA, will they work with the community, will
they be integrated with Xorg/DRI/Mesa/the kernel ?
Everyone has lots of questions about that I guess, I would love that my
editor writes an informed article about that.

The problem being that your editor really doesn't know anything, and neither does anybody else. All we have is one blog entry from one person who heard a vague promise from one person at ATI. We can hope, but it's far too soon to do more than that.

Oh, we can certainly ask - won't be the first time. But I don't expect to get any more information than we have any other time.
