Could someone please explain what's going on. The only documentation in Fedora i see about this decision is in the F11 alpha release notes. Maybe everyone reads them but me, however it would be nice if these kind of significant changes were announced. Its been said that this decision was taken upstream. My initial Googling shows this first being brought up as an idea in Ubuntu [1] where it is shown as implemented. It is later shown as a secret poll on the freedesktop list [2]. Is there any reason the Xorg maintainer in Fedora didn't make us aware of that all this was going on? Aren't the release notes expected to be read upon release, when it is way to late to give input? I don't agree that adding a paragraph or two in the release notes are good enough for changes that effect everyone. Xorg seems especially guilty of making significant changes which are later just discovered by users.
