I'm hoping we can pull the 1.9 release in by three months and having a very short merge window that just adds the drivers back without other significant changes. To make this work, we'd need to see trees with drivers merged back well before the 1.8 release date. Driver maintainers with an interest in having their driver integrated in 1.9 should consider posting merged trees for review in the next few months. > I'd suggest then we plan on the 7.6 katamari releasing in early > October 2010, close to one year after 7.5. That seems like a good schedule. One thing I'd like to see is far fewer packages released just before the katamari though; can you say what kind of issues you've seen resolved by the updated modules? > Due to the recent change to xlsclients (and suggested similar changes to > other clients that still need to be written), the 7.6 katamari will probably > be the first to have a hard requirement on XCB support - sometime during > the next year we should decide if we want XCB to remain a separate thing > we depend on or whether we want to work with the XCB maintainers to include > it in our release process as a core katamari component. I'd say xcb should be part of the katamari; I don't see any significant issues here, we can just package it up and include it. -- keith.pack...@intel.com
