Yeah, they don't write changelogs, "open it up and figure out what you get" tradition . Mesa is updated as i see...

Why they don't include gallium-nine in their all-open stack? Even Debian have it nowdays, so it is not a legal problem i guess?

I could only imagine what would be if AMDGPU-PRO on AMD site say in changelog "We enabled D3D9 on all-open Linux" Let alone if they do explicit marketing pictures about that

<sarcasm> Sure, because Debian works much more closely with Microsoft than AMD does </sarcasm>

Hmm... That's weird, I'm not seeing Fluid Motion added in any of the commits for 18.50.

Seriously though. Can anyone in the know explain why it comes off as AMD having low key shame for this great feature?
