Hi!
----
Here come the notes from the 2004-11-12 release wrangers call (version
1, still missing the traging/sorting/categorizing of the remaining bugs
in the request queue - see my comment below (I'll post version 2 this
evening when I am awake again)):

These patches can now be commited to the X11R6.8.x branch. Patches
should be commited by the person who requested the approval, if he/she
lacks commit rights then I can do that (if nothing happens within one
week then I'll do the commit myself). Please follow the instructions at
http://freedesktop.org/pipermail/release-wranglers/2004-November/001235.html
that release-wranglers can see which patches have been commited and
which not.
(A full list of bugs with approved patches/attachments can be found
under
https://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr&short_desc=&product=xorg&long_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&bug_file_loc_type=allwordssubstr&bug_file_loc=&emailassigned_to1=1&emailtype1=substring&email1=&emailassigned_to2=1&emailreporter2=1&emailcc2=1&emailtype2=substring&email2=&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&votes=&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&cmdtype=doit&order=Bug+Number&field0-0-0=flagtypes.name&type0-0-0=substring&value0-0-0=%2B)
The whole triaging of approval requests and their patches took around
one hour so the release-wranglers call decided to do the remaining patch
triage via email and on monday's release-wranglers call.
* Remaining bugs in the approval queue (see
https://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/request.cgi?action=queue&requester=&product=&type=approval_X11R6.8.x&requestee=&component=&group=category)
are, grouped by Bugzilla "Component" (note: this list is incomplete,
Daniel Stone may do another bunch of approval requests from Ubuntu,
Egbert Eich may have the one or other usefull patch currently shipped
with SuSE 9.2 and I still hope the DragonFly people come up with a final
version of their patch, too. Additionally the triaging, categorizing and
patch description is missing here (I am too tired now for that, I'll
post an updated list on saturday evening (otherwise I'll fall off the
chair here... ;-/))):
