src/mesa/drivers/Makefile isn't in the tarball, so it doesn't build.
Should there be some sort of distcheck equivalent? Other than that, my
i965 works fine. All the DRI drivers built, too.

Ooops. Sorry.  Missing makefile is attached.  I'll roll a new tarball
soon...

What would people think about using tracker/blocker bugzilla entries, as
is done for X.Org releases (e.g.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10101 is the tracker bug
for X.Org 7.4)?

E.g. I think https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14441 and
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15477 should be fixed
before 7.1, as they're regressions from 7.0.x.

I don't understand why the release happens on master not a stable branch
(like mesa_7_0_branch). Will there be a stable branch for the next
release?

Thanks

Mesa 7.1 will be a (relatively stable) development version, 7.2 will
be the stable branch some time in the future. Before it there may be
7.1.1, ...

That's correct.

Basically, Mesa's been using and even/odd numbering scheme for many
years now.  An odd-numbered release like 7.1 denotes a development
release (usually lots of new features/changes).

After 7.1 has been out for a bit, the plan is to make a stable 7.2
branch just for bug fixes.  The trunk will then be open again for new
development.

BTW, I'll probably wrap up a 7.0.4 bug-fix release soon too.

Yeah, there are a few bugs that really should get fixed for 7.1.

(As you know, Michel) we've been busy with enough other things that it's
hard to track, much less fix, all the open bugs.

I'd be OK w/ the X.org-style blocker entry.  Otherwise, just marking
bugs with high/highest priority would probably be an improvement.


Now that DRM 2.3.1 is out and Xserver 1.5 is eminent, I'd like to put a
stake in the ground and get 7.1 out there.  So I don't think I'll hold
up things too long.

Sure, but I think a tracker bug helps to prevent things like this from
falling through the cracks.

> I'd be OK w/ the X.org-style blocker entry.

I just created

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=mesa-7.1

('mesa-7.1' is an alias for the bug number 16653 and can be specified
anywhere where bugzilla expects a bug number)

Okay. It looks like #15477 is about to be fixed in the meantime. :) And
#14441 shouldn't be hard to fix either (in the worst case just by
disabling the SetTexOffset hook) for somebody familiar with the i965
driver.

Thanks for the explanation. It makes much clearer now.
