[Mesa-announce] Mesa 17.3.1 release candidate

[Emil Velikov]

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 17.3.1 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 35 queued
 - 1 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 2 rejected patches


The current queue consists of:

Nearly a multiple fixes, making the GLSL shader cache more robust. The
RADV driver does not advertise VK_EXT_debug_report - there is no support
for it.

The i965, radeonsi, nvc0 and freedreno have received a few small fixes
each.

A number of big endian fixes have been merged.

Take a look at section "Mesa stable queue" for more information.


Testing reports/general approval
--------------------------------

Any testing reports (or general approval of the state of the branch)
will be greatly appreciated.

The plan is to have 17.3.1 this Wednesday (20th of December), around or
shortly after 17:00 GMT.

If you have any questions or suggestions - be that about the current
patch queue or otherwise, please go ahead.
