Individuals interested in VESA memberships?

[Lyude Paul]

Hi! So we can't give access to VESA stuff to non Xorg members, but membership
is free! Also, since we're part of freedesktop.org now if your project is part
of that we could probably get you an Xorg membership and go from there. Does
that sound like something you'd be interested in?

fwiw: https://members.x.org/ ← signup is here
