Hello friends,

I've just released v0.0.4 of the Xorg testing ground kit, which is now
also supporting Illumos (OpenIndiana).

[ Special call out to the Solaris community: I'd love to also support
   other distros (eg. Tribblix), as well as the commerial Solaris, but
   that's a bit overreaching my capacities - so any help from Solaris
   experts is highly welcomed.

   And if any Sun/Oracle engineer or offical getting this message,
   please get in touch with me.
]

As like with the other platforms, it automatically detects the host type
via uname and automatically selects Illumos/OpenIndiana as target
platform (unless explicitly configured otherwise).

Currently supported platforms:

* GNU/Linux (apt-based)
* FreeBSD 14
* NetBSD 10
* OpenBSD 7.5
* Illumos: OpenIndina Hipster

(feel free to send patches, if you're missing one :))

I'd recommend all Xorg testing volunteers getting in touch with me
for further coordination and improvements.

have fun,
