wayland-protocols 1.12 is now available.

This version includes the new stable version of the XDG Shell protocol. In
short, the difference between the XDG Shell stable and the last unstable
version include (among other things):

 * The base interface and the global exposed via the registry changed from
   zxdg_shell_v6 to xdg_wm_base.
 * Fullscreen semantics were better defined and geometry requirements
   relaxed to allow certain hardware optimizations.
 * The popup positioner was changed to allow positioning against a point.
 * The popup semantics was changed to allow future extendability.
 * Toplevel parent-child relationship ambiguities were fixed.
 * Unmap/map semantics were better defined.
 * Various other ambiguities were fixed and documentation in general was
   improved.

Check the git log for details.
