Hi,

just some update to all dev's working on xorg-7.1 .

For anybody willing to jump in here are the sources:
ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/individual I also refer in the following lines to
that structure given on that ftp.

* All apps, but compiz, proxymngr, xphelloworld and xsm are built.
* From data we miss xcursor-themes and xkbdata which I will do next.
* From driver we got kbd,mouse,ati and nv. All other drivers are missing.
* We miss everything from font.
* We might miss some library but all necessary libs we usually need are built.
* The majority of the proto packages is available in
xorg-x11-proto-devel , surely a very few (uncommon) are missing.
* utilities are available as package imake / lndir.
* The xorg-server and the xgl extension are built already.

So what's left to be done ? So far I see those tasks:


1) Get the font stuff compiled and properly packaged.
2) Increase the number of available drivers.
3) Provide 1 meta package which installs a working X 7.1 server.
4) Provide 1 meta package which installs a working xgl-server which
can be easily switched on and off.

Once the font stuff has been built it's time to test the new xserver
thoroughly and get a good basic configuration done. For that we need
lot's of testers from the dev's. Any more input welcome.

regards
