X Server 1.7 was released earlier this month thereby paving the way for the release of
X.Org 7.5, which is finally out there this afternoon. X.Org 7.5 consists of
X Server 1.7.1 and all of the latest drivers, libraries, and other modules.
The key features introduced since X.Org 7.4 last year are
Multi-Pointer X,
X Input 2.0,
input device properties,
RandR 1.3, and
DRI2. If you're not already familiar with these new features, well, you are not reading Phoronix enough. The X.Org 7.5 release announcement can be read on the
mailing list with additional information being available from the
X.Org web-site.
The next release,
X.Org 7.6, will likely
come next October. The next X Server release,
X Server 1.8, is planned to
come out in March.
