[Mesa-announce] Mesa 17.0.7 release candidate

[Emil Velikov]

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 17.0.7 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 21 queued
 - 5 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 0 rejected patch(es)


Note: this is the final anticipated release from the 17.0.x series.
We have a few important outstanding patches which I'm planning to merge
considering we have no regressions are reported by the Intel Jenkins instance.

That aside, in the current queue we have:

The mesa GLVND GLX library now handles glXGetDriverConfig, as used by driconf.

For EGL the error checking within eglMakeCurrent has been relaxed.

On the driver side:
i965 and ANV have improved DXT1 and BC1 format handling. And the i965 vec4
backend has a few uniforms related fixes.

The nouveau, etnaviv and vc4 drivers have seen minor improvements.

Last but not least, we have several Wayland patches improving event queue
handling.

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 17.0.7 this Wednesday (31th of May), around or
shortly after 20:00 GMT.

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