First release. Most components extracted from xgps. The old backends, |
83 |
xgps and xdps were depreciated in favor of this new backend, simply named |
84 |
back, which can be configured for a variety of window server and |
85 |
graphics implementations, and also allow for improved code sharing. |

although it is in a very alpha state. |
