compiz.blogspot.com — Effectively, the Compiz project will be split into two divisions, the 'Compiz-Core' and the new (temporarily named) 'Composite Community' that works on plug-ins separate from the Compiz-Core, and takes the best of Beryl Plug-ins and 'Compiz-Extra' plug-ins! Thanks and congrats to all those who helped to make this work!

This is going to be awesome for the Linux community. I hope more projects would join forces and create a kick-ass product.

The Khronos Group (www.khronos.org) has recently created a working group for a low-level window composition API that will probably sit on top of OpenGL/OpenVG. Does anyone know if the Compiz/Beryl folks are involved with this?

Excellent news and a sure win for the Linux/FOSS community. It is allways good to see people set aside their personal differences for the greater good of the whole community in true Ubuntu fashion

mobilehavoc: You can tweak beryl to be as intrusive or subtle as you want. Try that with OSX or Vista. I personally think OSX and Vista type visualizations could have been done a bit better but that's my opinion... with beryl, it doesn't have to stop at the defaults. There are some powerful features in beryl that can't be found in the other OSs.

This whole topic seems like a Linux fanboy's wet dream.
