Major Open-Source ARM Announcement Coming

[rah_]

Maybe we'll see another Phoronix article why the announcement didn't come

How is it you know that the announcement has not been made?

Oh, that's a bit disappointing. I was hoping for something more widely used in mobile/tablet space. Like MALI-400.

We can't do big statements for Mali, like in january/february, anymore When we do have time, we are slowly working on completing things. Nothing spectacular there, except when some interesting milestones are reached or some demos happen. Nothing _as_ big anymore as "now we cracked open an ARM GPU", as we're too bogged down doing slow grunt work

When Michael breaks out the Algad Power Beer (from Algeria), we'll know that PowerVR is going open source.

Haha. You guys are finally starting to realize that when I post pictures of beer on Phoronix there's often double meanings or other information to be gathered from the otherwise random photos....

Or PowerVR...

I know, I know! It's for the Raspberry Pi, no?

I saw "Framboise" and thought "strawberry" as well, but strawberry is actually "Fraise".

That's why I'm not trusted to buy fruit in Montreal...
