Schaller: Red Hat joins Khronos

At his blog, Christian Schaller announces that Red Hat has joined the Khronos Group, the consortium behind (among other things) the OpenGL standard. Schaller notes that "the reason we are joining is because of all the important changes that are happening in Graphics and GPU compute these days and our wish to have more direct input of the direction of some of these technologies. Our efforts are likely to focus on improving the OpenGL specification by proposing some new extensions to OpenGL, and of course providing input and help with moving the new Vulkan standard forward."

Considering all their work on Nouveau/whatever its new name is, this only seems logical.

Yeah they also employ Rob Clark working on Freedreno the Adreno GPU driver. Would be nice to see some of these people rocking around the Khronos group a bit.
