Moving the Linux desktop to another reality

Today, we are very excited to announce a new open source project which enables interaction with traditional desktop environments, such as GNOME and KDE, in VR. Sponsored by Valve, xrdesktop makes window managers aware of VR and is able to use VR runtimes to render desktop windows in 3D space, with the ability of manipulating them with VR controllers and generating mouse and keyboard input from VR. At least the time Valve isn't spending on making the Steam client not suck or, you know, games, is spent on something worthwhile - improving often neglected aspects of the Linux world.
