No new plug standard is ever finalized before a few companies try to manufacture it. Manufacturers are not stupid. They do exactly the same as xorg: a new design is prepared in common by interested parties, they agree among themselves it's almost cooked, some or all of them try to create products with it, the feedback from those first runs is used to correct problems on the design, and then the final "standard" and shipping products are announced at about the same time. And then sometimes market pressure means some of the first series are shipped before the standard is 100% finalized (that's for real hardware products, with real material distribution logistics problems, not something you can slap on a web site in 30s). Only very stupid engineers commit to a standard before any line of code or any product series was started. You're blinding yourself. Xorg did nothing wrong. Nvidia is late to the party (as usual) and you're gullible enough to believe its cartoon-level excuses. -- Nicolas Mailhot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
