Found an announcement:
https://plus.google.com/u/0/118125769023950376556/posts/RfCBEGaPHnX
* this is an official release
* no further releases for 96xx are planned, i.e. no Xserver 1.13+ support
So we will need to finally phase out the 96xx driver for jessie, we can
use the transition instructions that we already have in 96.43.20-8
(including a bunch of translations), but at that time, probably even
less people will be using that old hardware.
