I've been kind of out of touch with DRI / X development lately, but it 
looks like the current Mesa CVS trunk and the DRI tree's DRM modules 
will be going into this release.  Is that correct?

The Mesa CVS trunk doesn't constitute a normal Mesa release yet.  I 
was planning on eventually wrapping up the trunk as the 6.1 
(development) release.  The last Mesa stable release was 6.0.1 and bug 
fixes relative to it are on the mesa_6_0_branch branch in CVS.  I 
don't think any of the DRI driver developers have been putting 
anything into that branch though.

That said, I _think_ the Mesa CVS trunk is fairly stable code at this 
point.  Perhaps I should make the 6.1 release ASAP, just so things are 
somewhat synchronized.  Comments?
