Alan Coopersmith (5):
      Use special path to sockets when running under Solaris Trusted Extensions
      Remove unused DECnet code
      Add #include <sys/socket.h> to xcb_conn.c
      Make launchd code in xcb_util.c match surrounding code indent levels
      If protocol is "unix", use a Unix domain socket, not TCP

Christoph Reimann (14):
      added xcb_sumof() with restriction to uint8_t
      xkb: updated configure.ac/Makefile.am
      new and still preliminary functions for switch; feautures include     - API compatibility with valueparam     - r
      xkb: added pkg config file
      added generating code for _serialize() in case of variable sized structs (largely untested)
      preliminary handling of further special cases in unserialize     first attempts to unify serialize and unserializ
      partial rewrite of serialize helper functions completed;     _serialize() & _unserialize() have been tested for s
      bug fixes for all kinds of 'special cases'
      attempt to fix special case: variable fields followed by fixed size fields
      renamed most _unserialize() functions to _sizeof() and fixed _unserialize() for the special case of intermixed va
      special case 'intermixed variable and fixed size fields': fixed reply side, needs testing
      added accessors for special cases     major bugfixes include: rewrite of prefix related functions, merge of seria
      small fix in the xkb pkg file

      Include XKB in ./configure's summary output.

      Delete the old c-client.xsl.
      Revert "Introduce xcb_wait_for_event_until, for consuming responses in wire-order."
      Keep ALIGNOF definition out of the public namespace.

Jeetu Golani (8):
      Win32 code for xcb-1.5
      windefs.h is now called xcb_windefs.h - changed all includes to reflect that.Replaced one instance ofWIN32 with _
      changes in xcb_windefs.h - the flag  _XCB_WINDEFS_H replaces WINDEFS_H
      restablished inclusion of fcntl.h and netinet/tcp.h in xcb_util.c -- without these the code no longer compiled on
      xcb_in.c #ifndef _WIN32 inside of #if USE_POLL redundant and removed
      Set errno=0 in read_block. On Win32 there is no errno and this makes the     do..while loop execute only once. Al
      Replaced read() in read_block and _xcb_in_read() with recv for all     platforms. MSG_WAITALL is undefined in Min
      Don't validate FD_SETSIZE on Win32
