We've never been good about fixing all the bugs on the release tracker,
but it appears we've gotten out of the habit of even just reviewing the
bugs and moving them forward to the next release when we're done, as
most open bugs are still stuck under the 1.12 & 1.13 trackers:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=xserver-1.14&hide_resolved=1
Let´s have a look at one of those bugs:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58174
Problem: Terminating the xorg server leaves screen, keyboard and mouse
blocked.

So there is a serious problem with a known, reviewed and tested fix that
is totally ignored for more than six weeks.
BTW: I really wonder how many people regularly run/test xorg master ...
Yeah I even included it in a pull request that was ignored for ages,
and when some
bits got applied the rest is still being ignored.
At this point I'd like to suggest something is broken and we go back
to the mesa style
system for master, where anyone can commit once we have an R-b from the list
All in favour say aye?
Please forgive me if this is something I should have been on top of.
I'm the xserver stable branch maintainer. Have I been dropping the ball
here? I've been paying more attention to emails from people than
following the 1.13 bug tracker,
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44202.
Have I missed something? Should I be more active in poking people on
bugs? Other?
