Windowing system.

Fresco is a windowing system derived from a powerful structured graphics toolkit originally based on InterViews. Fresco extends earlier incarnations to the status of a full windowing system, in command of the video hardware (via GGI, SDL, DirectFB or GLUT) and processing user input directly rather than peering with a host windowing system.

Additionally, Fresco's extensions include a rich drawing interface with multiple backends, an upgrade to modern CORBA standards, a new Unicode-capable text system, dynamic module loading, and many communication abstractions for connecting other processes to the server.

The next generation

This is the next step after X Windows. Unfortunately, it bears a lot of resemblance to the Hurd project - incredible potential, very slow development. However, I suspect that after however many years, it will be worth the wait.
