== Description ==

xorg-server 1.11.3.901 is the first release candidate for xorg-server-1.11.4.
Version 1.12 of xorg-server is in convergence, so changes landing in the
stable branch are starting to trickle down.  This release  contains fixes for
various crashes and other correctness issues fixed since the previous release.

== Known Issues ==

Most issues are now being tracked for convergence of the 1.12 server, but they
will be cherry picked into the 1.11 branch if a safe fix becomes available
before 1.12 ships.
