Ok. so i know it's not cutting-edge news but I was finally thinking about doing a little 2d project. After browsing through this site extensively and a couple of others the general opinion of members is to use 3d hardware acceleration to do 2d.

That's when i stumbled across this Link

I only browsed quickly, but it seems like it could be a good thing (if someone cleverer than me ports the headers over ) I couldn't find a download link so have no idea if it's going to be Dx10 and above or what.

Anyone have any thoughts or opinions on this
