[[http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.6/|X11R7.6]] development is complete: [[http://www.x.org/releases/X11R7.6/|the final release]] has been posted.
(See [[Other/Press/X11R76Released|the announcement]] for further details.)

== Features Added/Enhanced ==

 * [[http://xcb.freedesktop.org/|XCB]] included in the katamari, required by libX11 1.4 and some clients.
 * [[Server18Branch|Xorg server 1.8 changes]], including [[http://who-t.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-configuration-world-order.html|new input hotplugging and configuration framework]]
 * [[Server19Branch|Xorg server 1.9 changes]]
 * [[Development/Documentation/WritingDocumentation|Documentation]]: Most protocol & API docs moved from xorg-docs into individual proto/library modules, converted from legacy formats to DocBook/XML where possible.
 * Massive amounts of configure.ac/Makefile.am cleanup & improvement.  Lots of previously duplicated bits moved to xorg-macros (requiring recent xorg-macros versions when we build the tarballs, but unless you autoreconf that shouldn't affect people building from tarballs).
 * Most of the COPYING file stubs have been replaced with actual copies of the copyright & license notices for easier packaging by distributors who provide such notices in their packages.

== Features Removed ==

 * [[http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=52bc6d944946e66ea2cc685feaeea40bb496ea83|Xsdl]] - experimental kdrive server using SDL that was never finished
 * [[http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=0b7c6c728c2e2d8433a188315cc591308a89cd85|Frame buffer support in XF86DGA]]
 * [[http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=0ba82562eeba8bf3bcd00b6e3ff28ce5b2c8df3c|Multibuffer extension in X servers]] - deprecated since the 90's


== Schedule ==

 * RC1: 11 November 2010
 * Final Release: 20 December 2010
