  • Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2007 12:29:34 +0200

I have just successfully merged the xorg-modular repo into a separate
branch in our grimoire tree. I will push this to the server ASAP and thus
deprecate the separate xorg-modular repository for any active use. This is
to comply with the schedule that was recently discussed on the -grimoire
channel that we get -modular into test by end of the year. Sandalle has
been working towards this end by making relevant changes to the monolithic
spells to deprecate into -modular ones.

All further development on xorg-modular is to happen in the devel branch.
I'd ask that also any further updates are to it are first made in the devel
branch and only after some runtime tests to be put into the main grimoire.
Reason being that the xorg devs have a rather bad track record of breaking
backwards compatibility since -modular exists. Hence why I would ask for
any critical updates(libs, server, devel drivers(noted by odd version
numbers(usually 1xx or similar)) be not put into test unless they are well
tested beyond the "does it cast" requirement we have..
