This time Dennis Kibbe will be showing off XGL. Xgl is a new Xserver 
architecture layered on top of OpenGL. Xgl can perform intricate graphical 
operations--such as rendering antialiased fonts--noticeably faster than other 
available Xservers that do not use OpenGL. The current implementation is Xglx 
but the future implementation of Xgl will be Xegl. 

More important than speed alone, Xgl accelerates complex composite operations, 
making possible new stunning visual effects through on OpenGL-enhanced 
composition/window managers like Compiz. These visual effects have broad 
practical use, making Linux more accessible for the visually impaired, and 
creating a workspace that is easier to comprehend and navigate for less 
experienced users.
