Description Kevin Brace 2018-05-22 06:24:49 UTC

I already have commit privileges for OpenChrome Project related repositories, but I will also like to have commit privileges for X.Org DDX repositories (xorg/driver/xf86-video-*) as well.
I have almost single handedly managed 3 releases of OpenChrome DDX in the past 2+ years with good results (i.e., bug fixes and improving device support).
I plan to start clearing out compilation warnings initially for some of the neglected DDXs, but will eventually go into fix bugs and adding new features.

Dear fd.o administrator,

I got two endorsements for obtaining xorg device driver commit privilege.
This one is from Adam Jackson.

This one is from Connor Behan.

I look forward to obtaining the necessary commit privilege soon.

You are already in the xorg group, so can push to the repositories.

Thank you Daniel.
I was able to commit my 4 patches into xf86-video-r128 upstream repository.
