I know it's not the devopers fault that they can't reverse engineer nvidias closed source crap but nouveau has always been garbage. Nvidia should adopt and fix it or at least help.
1. Relations with NvidiaNVIDIA changes prevent us from releasing a driver
* Signed firmwares accessible publicly but not redistributable
* Reverse engineering of vbios impossible
2. Communication mostly down * Main contact/dev left NVIDIA (Alexandre Courbot)
* Most important requests left unanswered...
* ... until more complete code than wanted lands publicly innvgpuweeks later
