Rasterman Responds To Seth And Havoc
An anonymous reader writes "Rasterman, of Enlightenment fame, has responded to Seth Nickell and Havoc Pennington's blog entries, which were in reference to this previous article. about Next gen X rendering. Raster says: 'Well it seems the XDevConf has produced some interesting blogs and discussion. I'm a bit sad I was not able to attend (no funding at all), as there seems to have begin a lot of discussion and moves in directions we in Enlightenment land have been going for years, and are likely far ahead in. I guess this means we haven't been able to share our experience in this. Maybe next year. Anyway the point is that this has started up some musings from Seth Nickell and Havoc Pennington related to this. This is great - finally people are beginning to take seriously what the Enlightenment crowd have been talking about for years.'" (Note: the previous post was about Nickell's post, not the other way around.)

Ah, thanks for qualifying this. Now it is about as clear as a galaxy full of dark matter.
It's not enough that people don't read the articles? Now Slashdot is actively discouraging them from reading the summaries?
Anyone else think this article sounded a bit more superhero than it turned out to be?
"Rasterman Responds To Seth And Havoc"
RasterMan, defender of good finally reengages his age old enemies Seth, and his evil master Havoc.
There's nothing Intelligent about Intelligent Design.
If people expect him to be somewhere, and he can't, maybe he owes them a good explaination?
I suppose he could just say, "I'm Batman," vanish inot the shadows, and activate his lurking device, but that might lack a certain something.

Rasterman, you're brilliant; but in the immortal words of Guillermo Díaz :
Wrap it up B!

I'm happy, hope you're happy too...

Does this support multiple levels of alpha-blended transparency and painting of a GL canvas which can be mapped onto arbitrary surfaces?

They were always trying to get e17 out.

Nah, just supports mananging a few concurrent, graphical applications.

You just ALT+x to get where you want to go.
The smell of the under-engineering resembles that of the air in the countryside in Spring, flowers abloom, just after a bit of rain.
Performance un-suffers as well, anti-staggering under the non-weight of chrome and tailfin involved in the whole contra-design.
I may want to install E17 anyway, just to re-live the dissonance achieved when a Baptist boy went to Vespers and Matins at a Russian Orthodox cathedral...
