Compiz Fusion hits Gentoo

I know you've been waiting far too long for that. Now that Compiz and Compiz Fusion 0.6 are out, I've added them to portage.

The background: Compiz and Beryl, the two famous 3D-composite/windowmanagers for Linux, have merged forces. Main Compiz still resides in the package x11-wm/compiz, many additional plugins and tools are fetched in by the x11-wm/compiz-fusion metapackage.

The ebuilds are all based on the xeffects overlay, with some cleanup by me.

Happy window-wobbling!

Free documentary about free software

Today I found a note about the movie The Codebreakers. It's a free-licensed (cc-by-sa) documentary about free software in development countries.

It brings up different examples about successful usage of free software in different parts of the world. Worth watching.
