What else would we talk about other than the massively [popular|controversial] article about X.org last week. We try and address a number of concerns about the article and common lines of reasoning / misunderstanding. Lastly, we move onto something completely different with topics on Google Chrome on Linux, IE6 and the two details we know about RockMelt: Rock. Melt.

Arguing that handling crashes is unneeded as there shouldn't be any is like saying we do not need a fire service because houses should not burn down.
There are problems with the current graphical stack, even when using only open source software. The important question is how do we improve it.
I wasn't arguing that handling crashes is not needed. I was arguing that X is the wrong place for that. X provides very good framework for that already, shame... almost no software uses it.
Ati drivers are still in development while Intel... those drivers are going trough a lot of changes just to provide exactly what you are asking for.
If only people would read plans...
