If you remember people has raised over $10'000 to fund the Nouveau project... anyone know how that go? Did they find $10'000 no use at all?

What I recall is that the Nouveau people kindly rejected it, saying that it won't help them. A forum search may help you learn what exactly happeed.

$10000 is nowhere near enough to pay even a single developer to work full time on reverse engineering and developing drivers for display hardware for a meaningful period.
