I guess when removing a feature that you don't use, it is easy to say 'meh' about its possible future replacement. I've actually used this feature while debugging 2 applications in the past month. Admittedly, this a bit more than I normally use it, but I also don't see a motivation to removing it. So why not stall until there is an alternative? -Jordan _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
