Metisse on GNU/Linux demo

A demo of Metisse, an X-based window system designed with two goals in mind: make it easy to design and implement innovative window management techniques and conform to existing standards and be robust and efficient enough to be used on a daily basis, making it a suitable platform for the evaluation of the proposed techniques.

Actually, I think Metisse uses OpenGL (I was wrong). Well, I guess it would be 3D by your standards, but then so would multiple sheets of paper in RL, and they still show 2D, no matter how you turn them.

But yeah... we have to wait for the poster to reply what he meant by it.

You have to redefine your question.

Is it: WTH was that about?

or: How come it is not?

My question is the later :-)

And if yours is the former, it's because some magazines compared it to beryl/compiz (which is, in a sense a 3D desktop - because it uses 3D acceleration).

What's the track playing? J

[yacumanajiri]

io uso ubuntu 8.04 :)

[Desmaad]

Go Metisse! I prefer this over Compiz because it is actually useful.
