compiz - Jan 2009 - The object framework branch

What's the status of this branch?

I haven't seen any activity on it since march 2008, so I'm wondering if
it's abandoned or not?

If not, what's the plans for merging with core, what's the specific
benefits and disadvantages it brings?

Does the nomad branch depend on the object framework branch in any way?

Can the branch be removed, if it's discontinued? Or perhaps moved to a
personal repository if there's a plan to revive it in the future.

Hello!

Maybe this is bad question, but talking about the promising projects, what's
the
current state of input transformations? In my opinion, these would be definitely
attractive to revisit!

I'm completely off the picture by now but I remember the Compiz developers
were
still waiting for some changes to the X system to allow this. However, I have 
had an idea:

As far as I understand, the GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap extension was David 
Reveman's idea after all, wasn't it? So it could be said it was
implemented in
the drivers for the purpose of simplifying composite managers, especially 
Compiz. Couldn't the Compiz developers similarly implement the input 
transformations backend as an extension to X, or is it impossible this way?

Best regards and good luck with all the new effort,
Va?ek P.
