+      <p>This &os; Foundation-sponsored project will update the Intel
+	grapics chipset driver, <tt>i915kms</tt>, to a recent snapshot
+	of the Linux upstream code.  The update will provide at least
+	1.5 years of bugfixes from the Intel team, and introduce support
+	for the newest hardware — in particular Haswell and
+	ValleyView.  The IvyBridge code will also be updated.  Addition
+	of several features, which are required for the update of X.org
+	and Mesa, is also planned.</p>
