What the graphics team did every quarter.
This page should summarize the work done by the Graphics team by quarter to help prepare our bit for FreeBSD's Quarterly Status Report.
Each section doesn't need to be overly verbose, the idea is to make it easy to remember which major ports got updated, as well as other things worth mentioning in the report.
