Topic: XGL

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.
