err I've refrained to update to 1.11.0 b/c of that, waitint to know
if nvidia/amd will be supporting the new ABI.
They will. The question is not "if", but "when".
And not pushing a new version is not gonna make this appear sooner.
Also, not pushing the new version is likely decrease the quality of the
xorg server, since there will be less tests done, ( or rather tests done
later ).
This is also sending the wrong signal ( ie, "take cards supported by
proprietary blob and by vendors that are not providing sources, because
we care more about them rather than those who fully cooperate" ).
Well this is what we did back @mdv.
This is also what I did before doing the 1.7->1.9 update and
then the 1.9->1.10 update.
Just push x11-server-1.11 to testing so people that want it can start
testing it.
As for nVidia, the IgnoreABI works for some... Dont know about Amd...
