[Mesa-dev] [ANNOUNCE] Mesa 18.2.3 release candidate

[Juan A. Suarez Romero]

Hello list,

The candidate for the Mesa 18.2.3 is now available. Currently we have:
 - 38 queued
 - 1 nominated (outstanding)
 - and 0 rejected patches

The current queue consists of:

Several fixes and workarounds for different games, inlcuding RAGE, Yakuza and
The Evil Within, Wolfenstein The Old Blood ARMA 3, or No Mans Sky.

A bunch of fixes for different drivers, including r600, nouveau, radeonsi, anv,
radv, virgl, i965, nvc0 or nv50. Worth to mention a fix for GPU hangs in
Radeonsi.

State Trackers also get different fixes and corrections.

Finally, fixes for GLSL and NIR are also in this queue.

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

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