I agree with Hamish here... let's make sure we have a total vote (but a
time limit for 1.0 voting would be nice, or the delay is by defaulting
over the end of the month!).

The vote here below will be continued on sm-admin, for developers only.
The vote here can continue on discuss to give the developers an idea
what the users think?

Voting:
=======
staying at the current version of xfree86 +1
moving new versions to z-rejected +1
finding/testing new alternatives +1

Voted:
======
