X.Org Server 1.11 RC2 Is Released

Posted by Michael Larabel on August 04, 2011

Keith Packard has tagged X.Org Server 1.11 RC2. The X.Org Server 1.11 release is imminent and the RC2 marks the end of development except for critical fixes.

The X.Org Server 1.11 RC2 tag was made via this Git commit. Only critical fixes will be accepted until the release later in the month.

Compared to X.Org Server 1.10, the 1.11 release doesn't add too much to the table besides fixes and other small enhancements. Ubuntu 11.10 isn't even bothering to upgrade to the xorg-server 1.11 release.

Following the X.Org Server 1.11 release, there is then the X.Org Developers' Conference in Chicago.
