[opensolaris-summit] Establishing a Successful OS Platform

[ken mays]

Shawn,

We have some of the greatest engineering minds from Sun and many others from
around the world attending the Summit. Your request is a part of the agenda
in which I proposed we look at multimedia-related APIs dealing with both
2D/3D graphics, video, and sound.

Sound: OpenAL, Gstreamer 0.10.x/Fluendo, OSS 4.0, OSS/3D
Graphics: OpenGL 2.1/Shader Model 4.1 & Mesa 7.0.3
