How do people feel about including the kdrive and xgl DDXes in 7.0?
Arguments for:
- Stable version number on kdrive and xgl releases is a good thing
- kdrive has precedent for being included in releases from XFree86
- xgl really needs a release at some point
Arguments against:
- Violates "same code, different build systems" principle, unless someone
writes imakefiles
- Slaves kdrive and xgl development to the 7.0 schedule
There's always the possibility of marking those DDXes highly experimental and
not building them by default in the official 7.0 release (though possibly by
default in the release candidates for coverage). Or just doing a really
rapid 7.0.1 right after 7.0 that imports the other two.
I'd really like to see them included in 7.0, but that may not reflect the
distributor perspective. Comments?
