I would like to open XDC by shipping Mesa 7.5.2 and 7.6.  In order to
make that happen, I propose the following:

- - Freeze both branches at 12:01AM PDT 9/25 (this upcoming Friday).

- - I will tag both trees at that time.  One will get mesa_7_5_2_rc1, and
the other will get mesa_7_6_rc1.

- - Once those tags appear, please test whatever drivers *you* care about
on whatever platforms *you* care about.

- - Report any new regressions to bugzilla.  If you find something that
you believe is an absolute show stopper, mark it as such.  We'll discuss
 whether we want to block the releases for it.

For 7.6, I want to set the bar for blocking the release very, very high.
 At least one distro really wants to use 7.6, and their freeze is
perilously soon.  IMO, pretty much only build failures or "7.6 make my
computer catch on fire, but 7.5.1 does not" are blockers.

I had intended to post this RFC quite some time ago, but life issues
outside of $JOB have distracted me for the last few weeks.  The time has
just slipped by.  Aside from the absurdly compressed schedule, this
seems to be what most other projects do, and I think Mesa should to.
We've partially done this in the past, but our process could use a
little more, well, process. :)

Opinions?
