I'd like to cast a vote for waiting on our 4.8 release until there is a
solid 4.3.[01] release of X, as long as the delay is say, weeks, rather
than months. I've had to patch the X ports by hand with stuff from the X
cvs tree in order to get it to recognize my new video card, and there are
a lot of other users in the same/similar boats.
Not only is the marginal value of this release made more significant with
an up to date X, but there is precedent for a delay of this nature.
Just a thought,
Doug
