        - redesign mosaics to save memory and allow more internal
          formats + at the same time, mipmapping improvements
      anybody:
-       - fix text quality on OpenGL: enabling __GL_FSAA_MODE=4 on
-         NV17 (GeForce4Go) improves "make glinfo" appearance
-         dramatically. This would happen by making the mipmaps
-         more carefully, making sure that the text lines don't
-         blur too much in the process - maybe even going as far as
-         to rerendering each mipmap level by freetype?
-           - related to mosaic redesign.
        - ZZ w/ fillets, images, sound, video, libpaper
            - show zz structure behind all demos!
-       - clean up OpenGL demos and views and document, list
-         so easy to look at.
        - a really comprehensive web page of screenshots
          and instructions on how to get them and run.
!       + brush up OpenGL client in the simplest ways:
!           - background color
!           - cell borders???
!           - text vobs' size
        - PP
            - make it work again
            - fix directory geometry
