-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Today I visited the Openchrome-Project Homepage, the Debian-package description contains a
link there:
> andrew@a68n:~$ aptitude show xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
> Package: xserver-xorg-video-openchrome
> State: installed
> Automatically installed: yes
> Version: 1:0.3.3-1+b2

> Provides: xorg-driver-video
> Description: X.Org X server -- VIA display driver
> OpenChrome is a project for the development of free and open-source drivers for the
> VIA UniChrome video chipsets.
>
> Originally called the 'snapshot' release, since it was a snapshot of an experimental
> branch of the unichrome cvs code, this is a continued development of the open source
> unichrome driver (from http://unichrome.sf.net) which also incorporates support for the
> unichrome-pro chipsets.
> Support for hardware acceleration (XvMC) for all chipsets has subsequently been ripped
> out of the unichrome.sf.net driver. Therefore your only option if you wish to make use
> of the acceleration features of your VIA chip with free and open-source drivers is to
> use this version of the driver. Homepage: http://www.openchrome.org

The Site is obviously down, showing the picture of a kid holding a message, not to hate
it, because it's muslim. That's why I changed the severity of this ticket to important.
In my opinion it is a clear sign of neglect, when the Webpage of the project is down, I
am not referring to that kid.
OK, acknowledged, Islam itself is not evil, but what does that weird message displayed
there have to do with Openchrome??
I hope some of the package-maintainers have the means to inform those in charge of the
project site, in order to set this straight again.
