--- Comment #119 from Mario Rugiero <mrugiero at gmail.com> ---
I'm not sure. If you want older X.org, why can't you just do with older
Openchrome? The way I see it, if you can freeze one, you probably want to
freeze everything. Also, as other projects, such as X.org, change, supporting
all of the versions out there will rapidly become a huge burden, even more
considering Openchrome is currently way understaffed, and it makes sense to me
that a driver for X.org is coupled to X.org versions, it is not like we are
coupling Openchrome with a specific version of GNOME or something like that.
On the particular subject of XAA, I believe it is all or nothing: either it is
currently *really* maintained, or it should go.
If it were my job, I'd maintain it at most until one or two releases after
X.org obsoletes it, to give users time, but after that I'd crop the whole code
path, but probaly I'd just wait for EXA to be stable enough. However, it is not
my job, so I won't be deciding anything ;)
