Changelog

mir (0.13.0+15.10.20150512-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ Alan Griffiths ]
  * New upstream release 0.13.0 (https://launchpad.net/mir/+milestone/0.13.0)
    - Very large release as the previous 0.12 series contained only minimal
      bug fixes...
    - Enhancements:
      . New demo clients for input testing: mir_demo_client_eglsquare and
        mir_demo_client_target.
      . Demo clients: mir_demo_client_tooltip, mir_demo_client_animated_cursor
      . mir_demo_client_fingerpaint now processes input asynchronously to
        drawing for a more fluid experience.
      . New, default window manager in mir_demo_server
      . mir_demo_server option (--arw-file) to make socket filename globally rw
      . mir_demo_server demonstrates use of config file
      . Added support to mir_proving_server for rendering window title strings
      . Demo servers (mir_proving_server, mir_demo_server): Introduce support
        for Alt+` switching of windows in multi-window clients.
      . Added client API support for constructing input method surfaces.
      . Introduce "buffer streams" properly. This is a generalization of the
        most basic functionality of a surface.
      . Log useful OpenGL information on server start-up.
      . Add support for HWC 1.4
      . Add display and fencing information to the layers in the HWC report
      . Add a report_vsync method to display report
      . Support for second display when running on "android" driver stack
      . Server buffering strategy is configurable by --nbuffers=N
        (or environment MIR_SERVER_NBUFFERS=N)
      . Explicit support for configuring window management in libmirserver.
      . Remove surface configurator & placement strategy configuration points
      . Added experimental environment variable MIR_CLIENT_INPUT_RATE=Hz for
        tweaking the input resampling rate a client experiences (0 = off).
        Also raised the default input rate from 55Hz to 59Hz for visibly
        smoother touch scrolling.
      . Added keymap setting support for surfaces.
      . Improved automated testing of latency.
      . Replaced and rewrote automated ABI checking.
      . New client APIs for basic window management; setting window titles,
        self-resizing, size constraints and changing type.
      . Introduced dynamically loadable input platforms.
      . Work towards libinput integration
      . Added proof-of-concept support for Snappy packaging for Ubuntu Core.
      . Drop support for C++11. Now C++14 is required to build Mir.
      . Deprecated MirEventDelegate. Now you just pass the two fields as
        parameters directly to mir_surface_set_event_handler().
      . Legacy functions for creating surfaces marked deprecated
      . Minor redesign of the new input event API introduced in 0.10/11,
        so that identifiers are shorter and less convoluted.
      . Drop libmirclient dependency on client-platform drivers
      . Drop libmirserver dependency on client-platform drivers
      . Use the ABI version in platform library names and packages
      . Rework to reduce "abstraction leaks" in the graphics platform
      . Add thread sanitizer build option
      . Update KVM Instructions
      . Update CMAKE to use CMAKE_*_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
    - ABI summary: Servers need rebuilding, but clients do not;
      . Mirclient ABI unchanged at 8
      . Mircommon ABI bumped to 4
      . Mirplatform ABI bumped to 7
      . Mirserver ABI bumped to 31
