General X.org plans for Raring
The biannual catch-all X discussion session. If you are involved in a project that directly depends on the X stack, or needs a particular feature from the stack, come along.
No specification will be written for this (any work significant enough to warrant a spec must be split out to separate blueprints). This blueprint will be used for tracking any stray work items that don't fit in elsewhere.

Daniel D'andranda (dandrader) knows the touch stack and gestures stack. He'd be the right contact person on touch problems.
