we tracked down the bug to pwlib's sched_yield() usage. Other code that
uses sched_yield() to 'sleep a bit' could be affected as well.

Re: A credits section for the 4.4 release notes

2003-12-24 Thread Harold L Hunt II
David,

Upon first inspection it looks like all of the names of people that 
contributed Cygwin-related patches are there.

Thanks,

Harold

I was going to announce this after Christmas, but maybe today is
better.
I'm proposing to add a Credits section to the Release Notes for
the XFree86 4.4 release.  I have a sample/draft at:
  http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/pre-4.4/RELNOTES5.html

Remember this is a sample only, it is intended to give an idea of
how it might look.  It is by no means complete.
The idea is that notable new stuff (features and fixes) for which the
contributors and/or integrators have provided details for section 2
of the Release Notes would be itemised in the Credits section.  Section
2 can be viewed at:
  http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/pre-4.4/RELNOTES2.html

Comments are welcome. So are submissions of material and of course
additions/fixes to the list of contributors.  The bulk list in the
draft was ripped from the post-4.3.0 CHANGELOG entries.  There are
bound to be some errors and omissions given that we have had
contributions from more than 250 people for this release, so if
you are not listed just send me the details.  I prepared this just
after the RC2 cut, so submissions since then aren't yet reflected
in the list.
