Using XGL as a temporary hack or making temporary hacks to let users use compiz with AIGLX. If we don't do one of them, then we forgot a big part of the Fedora users. Yes, ATI driver suck for many reasons proprietary/not intensive developed/etc... but many people have such cards and saying that we don't care about it is just saying we don't care about a big part of our users, I think that's not good for Fedora. I'm personally sure that many people have switch to GNU/Linux these last year just to have a wobbly desktop with all these eye candy stuffs. I like eye candy as a awesome propaganda piece for the GNU/Linux desktops too. Just my 2 cent of the day. Alphonse
