For Intel 2.4.2: A bug report needs to be filed, it needs to be built, tested, code reviewed, and put back - pretty much just standard bug fix/RFE process. For Mesa 7.1: All of the same, plus probably ARC review, lots more testing, and coordination with the Xorg 1.5 integration, as I described last week: http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/xwin-discuss/2008-August/003540.html (Xorg 1.3 will not build with Mesa 7.1, Xorg 1.5 will not build with Mesa other than 7.1, so the integrations really must happen simaltaneously.) -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersmith at sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering
