From 5cce0d1d9d3a706282731a59001bfa1d1d8c4e9f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Erik Faye-Lund Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2021 12:54:07 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs: update virgl description Since this text was written, VirGL has become a shipping, production quality solution. It's no longer a research project. Let's update the text to reflect that. While we're at it, let's drop the project from the page title, as this is no longer the docs for the entire project.
