Any strong opinions either way?
Ok, I've heard no complaints, and we really are overdue... There's been some reasonable pushback against dropping fbdev immediately, so let's leave that in for this release. As to the release schedule, maybe: February 1, Alpha February 15, Beta March 1, RC1 March 8 as a first potential final release date. Is this too soon to enter freeze? It's not a lot of warning. Wayland has had enough changes that I think another joint release makes sense.
