Hi,

Some distribution (like Fedora) are thinking about making

Another issue is the versioning of mesa demos, i expect
that mesa demos will be more stable than mesa thus i don't
think we should follow mesa versioning but let it have
it's own versioning (should we start with version 1.0 ?)

If we can agree on versioning i can try to see if my kung-fu
is good enough to do a release of mesa demo :)


Well, if you start with the current mesa version, distro demo packages
won't have to bump their epochs to upgrade.


I don't have a strong opinion on this, but I think it would confuse 
some people to see something like the old MesaDemos-7.8.x.tar.gz and 
the new MesaDemos-1.0.tar.gz in the same place.  Everyone thinks 
larger version numbers indicate newer versions.


I don't want to complicate the lives of distro maintainers too, as Dan 
implied.
