X.Org Server 1.9.3 May Come Next Week

Posted by Michael Larabel on December 04, 2010

Apple's Jeremy Huddleston has announced the second release candidate for the forthcoming X.Org Server 1.9.3 point release. This point release in the stable 1.9 series delivers on more bug-fixes, with a handful of them for Apple's XQuartz, which is important especially as it looks the 1.9 series will be used by Mac OS X 10.7.

Assuming no regressions are to be found in this xorg-server 1.9.3 release candidate (tagged as v1.9.2.902), Jeremy intends to issue the official 1.9.3 point release in one week's time.

Meanwhile, all major development work has been going into X.Org Server 1.10 which should have its merge window closed next week while the final release is expected in February.

The X.Org Server 1.9.3 RC2 announcement can be found on the mailing list.
