The question people don't know the answer to is when xcb would be done?
years?months?days?which is why no one can plan ahead.
If we go and say ok xcb would be included in the next version of X
(yea yea not 6.8.x), then toolkits would start moving to it, if we'll just
suddeny add it it would take them a long time to respond.
BTW anyone know how xcb is doing?they are the only project who gave no
answer about puting the cia script in their cvs so I cant even see the
commits normally;)

We have serious lack of a roadmap/plan. or at least it's not being made
public.
