[Mesa-dev] [ANNOUNCE] Mesa 20.0 branchpoint planned for 2020/01/29, Milestone opened

[Marek Olšák]

Feel free to make the branchpoint now. We don't really need to wait for
anybody. Drivers that need fixing can have their fixes backported later.

The longer we wait, the greater the chance that somebody will introduce new
regressions in master.
