<br>I would suggest a framebuffer console as the primary target for this<br>project. Maybe as an extended goal it could be nice to try the libraries<br>already in RSB:<br>

<br>Adding a new library would be a very extended goal in my view because it<br>hast the potential to eat up a lot of time.<br>
<br>Vijay: I think you most likely need some test application already during<br>phase 2? So maybe you should add a point that you want to at least start<br>a fb-console there? Alternatively: Some simple test application that<br>just draws some dots or lines?<br>
<br>In phase 3 it would be great to have the graphics libraries as extended<br>goal (lower priority than cleanup and getting code merged).<br>
