ITEM: VESA open source approval/question
We got written confirmation from VESA regarding their approval of open source DisplayPort implementations, although Lyude still needs to read through it to make sure we're not missing anything. In the mean time, Lyude proposed that we should start listing VESA as an official X.org supporter, since they've gone above and beyond in helping out with open source during our interactions with them. Board voted to approve
ACTIONS: Lyude will look over open source implementation letter from VESA, and also contact them about being mentioned as a supporter on our website
