Currently I'm porting my vga functions to djgpp, and I plan to add vesa
1.2 & 2.0 soon.
the functions include bitblits, flat/gouraud shading triangles, rotations
(of bitmaps) mode independance, and several related functions. (Note:
planned are phong shading, any-sided polygons, texturemapping,
24bit+dithering, curved surfaces, et cetera.  That should keep me busy a
while).
The purpose is to make as complete a graphics package as possible
available to
every programmer to use/rip off/modify/learn from/et cetera et cetera. 
As I learn of
new techniques, I will attempt to implement them.
Question:
Is there already a similar project underway that I could work on
improving, instead
of spending the effort to port my programs and add multimode support
(currently only
supports vga 320x200x256)?  It must be freely available to all, with no
restrictions.
If so, how could I volunteer to help on it?
