Careful, Edgy may get xorg 7.1 real soon

[Joseph Smidt]

For those of you running edgy:

   Debian just uploaded xorg-7.1 into unstable yesterday and should be
getting
it today.  Ubuntu often syncs Debian's efforts, which is why edgy may not
have
received xorg-7.1 yet.  (As further evidence how closely Ubuntu mirrors
Debian, the x-update a while ago which crashed Ubuntu was a result of
accidentally uploading a Debian x-update intended for experimental but was
mistakenly uploaded into unstable[1], which of course was not ready to be
used.)

   Anyways, I am letting you know this because, if they are going to merge
xorg-7.1 from unstable it may happen in the next week or so, so be careful.
I
wouldn't want anyone to have their machines crash because they weren't
prepared for the xorg transition.
