Hash: SHA1

xrandr provides a primitive command line interface to the X11 Resize, Rotate,
and Reflect (RandR) extension.

New features:
 * Support for RandR 1.4's provider objects.  See the --listproviders,
   --setprovideroutputsource, and --setprovideroffloadsink options for more
   information.
 * --set now allows a comma-separated list of values.  This is useful with the
   Border property to configure different border adjustments for different edges
   of the screen.
 * --scale-from, which specifies a scaling transform based on the desired
   desktop size.
 * --query now indicates which output, if any, is primary.

It also contains a number of bug fixes.

One notable behavior change is that the --gamma option now takes the actual
gamma value rather than the reciprocal of the gamma value.  This matches the
behavior of other programs such as xgamma and the gamma configuration options in
xorg.conf.

Aaron Plattner (12):
  Add a --scale-from option
  xrandr: Fix string constness bugs
  man: document provider options
  xrandr: make providers a first-class citizen
  xrandr: look for providers by name or xid
  xrandr: Fix variable declaration warnings
  Bug #11397: check that numeric --orientation arguments are in range
  Bug #14118: print usage() to stdout, proper errors for bad arguments
  Bug #29603: document that there might be multiple preferred modes
  Bug #37043: adjust refresh rates for doublescan and interlace
  Cast XID to unsigned int to suppress a printf warning
  xrandr 1.4.0

Adam Jackson (2):

Alan Coopersmith (3):
  config: Add missing AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR
  Mark fatal() and warning() as taking printf-style arguments
  Fix -Wformat warnings about passing longs where ints were expected

Andy Ritger (5):
  xrandr: use 1/gamma to compute gamma-correction
  xrandr: fix gamma == 1.0  sigbits != 8
  xrandr: compute gamma-correction in [0,2^sigbits)
  xrandr: extend '--set' syntax to allow a comma-separated list of values
  xrandr: generalize output property printing

Colin Walters (1):

Nominations for X.Org Foundation Board of Directors are OPEN

2013-02-12 Thread Matt Dew
(This was posted separately to the general X.org list.)


We are seeking nominations for candidates for election to the X.Org
Foundation Board of Directors.  All X.Org Foundation members are
eligible for election to the board.

Nominations for the 2012 election are now open and will remain open
until 23.59 GMT on 3 March 2013.

The Board consists of directors elected from the membership.  Each
year, an election is held to bring the total number of directors to
eight.  The four members receiving the highest vote totals will serve
as directors for two year terms.

The directors who received two year terms starting in 2011 were
Matthias Hopf, Keith Packard, Matt Dew, and Alex Deucher.  They
will continue to serve until their term ends in 2013.  Current
directors whose term expires in 2012 are Eric Anholt, Alan Coopersmith,
Stuart Kreitman, and Bart Massey.

A director is expected to participate in the weekly IRC meeting to
discuss current business and to attend the annual meeting of the X.Org
Foundation, which will be held at a location determined in advance by
the Board of Directors.

A member may nominate themselves or any other member they feel is
qualified.  Nominations should be sent to the Election Committee at
elections at x.org.

Nominees shall be required to be current members of the X.Org
Foundation, and submit a  personal statement of up to 200 words that
will be provided to prospective voters.  The collected statements,
along with the statement of contribution to the X.Org Foundation in
the members account page on http://members.x.org, will be made
available to all voters to help them make their voting decisions.

Nominations, membership applications or renewals and completed
personal statements must be received no later than 23.59 GMT on 3 March
2013.

The slate of candidates will be published 4 March
2013 and candidate QA will begin then.  The deadline for Xorg
membership applications and renewals is 8 March 2011.
