Hi everyone! My name is Sergi Granell and I am a last year student at the Facultat d'Informà tica de Barcelona in the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya [1]. As this is my last semester there, I have to do my end of degree project. I have been interested in Wayland for a long time, and also following this mailing list. In fact, I sent a few (but simple) patches last year. Since I have wanted to contribute to Wayland (or Weston) for a long time, but being busy with the university kept me from doing it, I have decided that now it would be a good time to do it: as my end of degree project.
I have decided that I'd like to improve the atomic mode-setting and hardware planes usage in Weston, since that could improve the user experience and reduce the power consumption and memory bandwidth needed compared to rendering using OpenGL ES for example. The project starts right now and it lasts until June approximately, so I will try to do my best! Also I am always wandering around the IRC channel, so expect me to be somewhat active there too :) Anyways, let me know if you have any questions, comments or ideas.
