 ## Tests and Demos
 
+{1} Now that XCB has released version 1.0 and promised API compatibility, merge
+all XCB ports of standard X utilities back into their upstream repositories
+(perhaps on a branch at first).  Make sure to remove the use of xcb-util first,
+though.

 These specific features have been proposed as targets for simple test apps.

    Move note welcoming support for earlier versions before "check" info
    
    We know we don't want to support versions of check before it added pkg-config
    support in 0.9.4, so move the line welcoming support for earlier versions to a
    more useful place, right after the main list of dependencies.

+XCB and Xlib/XCB development efforts are coordinated using [git](http://git.or.cz), [bugzilla](https://bugs.freedesktop.org/), this Wiki, and the [XCB mailing list](http://www.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xcb).
 
 [libX11](http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/lib/libX11) and XCB repositories now use [git](http://git.or.cz/) for source control management (SCM). The git repository was created to integrate the XCB work in the X11 library and at the same time do real testing of alternatives to CVS. See the [instructions for using freedesktop.org repositories](http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/GettingInvolved).
 
 To build XCB from source, you need to have installed at least:
 
-- git 1.2
+- [git](http://git.or.cz) 1.2
 - [pkgconfig](http://pkgconfig.freedesktop.org) 0.15.0
 - automake 1.7
 - autoconf 2.50
