| This is the fourth year that the X.Org project will be participating in
| Google's Summer of Code project. In the past we have seen work like Generic
| Gallium3D Video Decoding using a graphics card's shaders to assist in video
| decoding no matter the hardware vendor. This year there are a few interesting
| possibilities.
