And as mentioned I think dri-drivers isn't big enough to be sustainable on its own.

It certainly is big enough to be disruptive to my inbox, and I don't seem to be alone.

If you want to make this happen, convince all those driver folks that this will benefit them. That's essentially how intel-gfx and the amdgpu list happened, and it's also kinda why nouveau is special (well it's developed entirely in userspace somewhere else). I just wanted to highlight that I don't see much benefit (if there is any) from the smaller-drivers point of view, and hence that your proposal will face an uphill battle. -Daniel
