Hi Hughes,

I've been followed your work since I came across it a few months ago. 
It's a great project.  I look forward to finding/fixing any issues in Mesa.

I'm cc'ing your message to the mesa-dev list.  That's probably the 
better place to get the attention of the i965 driver developers.  Also, 
you should probably file a Mesa bug for any issues you find.

-Brian

PS: Sorry about mangling your URLs above.  It's a VMware mail thing. :-(
