nanogui: Thread: Microwindows runs on X11

A big thanks to Tony Rogvall for writing Microwindows mouse,
screen and keyboard drivers for X11.  This means that X11
users can now develop Microwindows applications from within
the X environment, running them as another X Window.  Currently
the size of the Microwindows application window is compile-time
fixed, but it might be nice to allow it to be dynamically sized.

Also big thanks to Martin Jolicoeur for contributing  Makefile and build
enhancements including a ./configure program and graphical make xconfig,
as well as changes for StrongARM cross-compilation.

I will be including these additions in the next cut, as well as getting
a CVS repository up.  Thanks for the contributions, this project
seems to be gaining momentum...

I think this is probably a good time to announce that I am resigning my
role in the NanoGUI project and handing it on to Greg. Greg has been
pretty much coordinating the project on his own for the past few months
anyway, and has proven himself easily capable of the job. The mailing list
will continue to reside on linuxhacker.org, and ftp.linuxhacker.org
will continue to mirror the the ftp repository (and the contents of the
ftp area are also accessible via http at the same URL), however the
official website will be moving to either microwindows.censoft.com or
www.nanogui.org depending on the outcome of negotiations between Greg and
I, and Stormix who have registered the nanogui.org and nanogui.net domain
names. Similarly, the CVS area will be moving to either cvs.nanogui.org or
another repository at Greg's discretion.

I would like to take this oppurtunity to wish Greg good luck in his new
role as manager of the NanoGUI project; good luck Greg!
