+                                               Dear Frugalware-current users 
out there,<br />
+                                               You probably noticed that we 
did not update X.Org for a while. This happened as in our opinion the version 
we already have packaged was still more stable then any of the newer versions, 
so we sticked to X.Org 7.1 and decided to maintain it, instead of upgrading to 
a newer version for some time. Now it's time to upgrade!<br />
+                                               Finally upstream released an 
updated X server which seem to be: 1) as stable as the good old one we 
currently have, 2) featuring no more blocker problems like the ones in X.Org 
7.2 and X.Org 7.3 did. So in short: time for testing!<br />
+                                               We prepared a separate testing 
repo for this purpose as this update currently features more than 350 little 
changes. If you want to help, please:<br />
+                                               1) Add <pre>Include = 
/etc/pacman-g2/repos/xorg73</pre> to <tt>/etc/pacman-g2.conf</tt><br />
+                                               2) Create a file named 
<tt>/etc/pacman-g2/repos/xorg73</tt> with the following contents:
+                                               <pre>[xorg73]
+Server = 
http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/other/people/krix/xorg73/frugalware-i686</pre>
+                                               If no major problem occurs, we 
plan to merge the <tt>xorg73</tt> branch at the end of the weekend.<br />
+                                               Thanks for your help!
