Just a quick response as I'm meant to be leaving for a match...

I'll pull these later. Thanks.

I'll take another look since once again I'm in a situation where some
internal caching of server-side resources would be useful. However the
question remains is this Cairo's responsibility? We provide a similar
surface so that the application can cache as much as it deems necessary,
what further mechanism should Cairo possess? Anyway I promise to look at
your caching infrastructure again and see if helps with my problem. ;-)

Who is responsible for glitz now? There's no shortage of good ideas in
there - though not everything looks ideal for a i915 sadly. But it would
be a shame to let it simply bitrot away, especially as we have people
interested in using and fixing up cairo/glitz once more. It currently
belongs to the xorg group - could we add a glitz group and start to add
new maintainers/developers?
