Thanks to everyone for reviewing the proposal and approving it. Thank
you to Paul for your help getting the approval process going and keeping
it running smoothly.
We will begin the development phase of modularization shortly, and I
will make regular reports back here on our progress.
If anyone would like to participate in the development discussions and
implementation, please join us on the xorg-modular mailing list. You
can subscribe to the list here:
