[Xcb] New release of xcb ?

[Christian Linhart]

Hi Uli,

Thank you for setting up your branch.
I will test this tomorrow morning, and will post the result here.

I am fine that you'll make the release tomorrow afternoon.
Thank you for that.

Cheers,

Chris

P.S:. AFAIK, we are both in the same timezone (middle European time)
so there'll be no confusion what "morning" and "afternoon" is. ;-)
