      * New upstream release 0.26.1 (https://launchpad.net/mir/+milestone/0.26.1)
        - ABI summary:
          . mirclient ABI unchanged at 9
          . mirserver ABI unchanged at 43
          . mircommon ABI unchanged at 7
          . mirplatform ABI bumped to 15

            over {de}queueing of individual buffers {from}to the server.

            MirPresentationChains, etc.. MirRenderSurface API is marked
            deprecated as it (and the relevant entry points) will be renamed to

            fullscreen client starts [in mir_presentation_chain_set_dropping_mode
            ... std::exception::what: Operation not permitted] (LP: #1661508)
          . mir_window_request_persistent_id_sync seg faults when called twice.
            (LP: #1661704)
          . [regression] Windowed clients of nested servers are all black.
            (LP: #1661521)
