First release. Most components extracted from xgps. The old backends,
|
|
xgps and xdps were depreciated in favor of this new backend, simply named
|
|
back, which can be configured for a variety of window server and
|
|
graphics implementations, and also allow for improved code sharing.
|
|
|
|
In addition there is now a window server backend for Windows computers,
|
|
although it is in a very alpha state.
