[Mesa-dev] Mesa 17.2.0 release plan

[Marc Di Luzio]

Hi Emil,

This shouldn't block the RC, but it's something to make sure we have
fixed before the 17.2 final release.

We're currently tracking a black screen bug hitting most of our game
backlog - https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101867.

Just pinging in to make sure we're aware, hopefully we'll have a fix
cc'd within the week.

Cheers,
