Hi,

I see that the myst3 and stark engines have been merged into the main 
scummvm repository against my wishes as their main author. Kindly 
remove them.

Regards,
Bastien

>> Journey, and .5 engine is Wintermute3D, this year GSoC project.

>> to check for an OpenGL presence and enables relevant backends. 
>> Alternatively, there is a software renderer.
>> 
>> Also, we are getting math/, graphics/opengl and graphics/tinygl and

>> The projects were running in a tight sync, with ResidualVM team

>> 
>> We are also bringing ALL GIT HISTORY of ResidualVM to our repo, so 
>> we will have 2 roots. This will allow for easy bisecting for both 
>> teams, as there will be only a single commit to merge two histories.
>> 
>> You may take a look at the test repo here:

>> 
>> There will be some more work on the merger after it lands in our 
>> repo, for instance, cleaning up some comments, the above mentioned 
>> Android port and perhaps something else we do not see yet.
>> 
>> Of course, both teams merge, though the few of ResidualVM team 
>> members were in both teams anyway.
>> 
>> 
>> Yay,
>> Eugene & Pawel
