Concerning the state of Compiz

Hi,

I'm certainly not anti-Mir but I guess we shouldn't hurt Compiz right now.

It is reported that some well tested performance improvement patch of
Compiz is blocked by Raring.

I guess this indeed created a PR issue for Ubuntu/Canonical.

The resolution I feel best is that merging Sam Spilsbury's patch and
freeze Compiz afterwards.
In this way, the PR issue can be mostly solved and it doesn't require
unfeasible man power.

If the story is very different from what is reported, can someone
elaborate on it?

Regards,
Ma Xiaojun
