    All of my drivers are compiled for ABI driver version 14 -- what's the best way of getting compatibility so I can actually test this? Do the drivers just have to be recompiled for the new ABI?

      Pull in this release, mesa git, compile them together. And hope to see that mesa git has been updated to accept the Xorg 1.15 work. Last time someone tried (about a week ago) they said tried and mesa wouldnt compile against it.
      All opinions are my own not those of my employer if you know who they are.

        Really nice to see DRI3 in and the GLX rewrite!

        But I would also hope for XWayland and to burn more code with fire!

        Is XInput 2.3 in?

          I would love to upgrade (especially to test DRI3 on my i7-3770K) but unfortunately the fucking Catalyst driver doesn't support X 1.15. Somehow it works on 3.13 which is a miracle
