[branden@deadbeast.net: [spotter@ymail.yu.edu: sorry for bothering you]]
Shaya, please do not email Branden. He gets too much email.
In direct response to your questions, you can find out what has made it
into Branden's Debian packaging by checking both
/usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/CHANGELOG.gz and changelog.Debian.gz. Also
of (marginal) interest are CHANGELOG.ND.gz and CHANGELOG.R5.gz.
To see what patches Branden has applied himself, you can use either
apt-get source or download the .diffs.
Also, if you knew the date the Radeon support was added, you could check
that against the date of 4.0.1-1's entrance into Debian -- Branden
mailed info about this on November second, so it would make good sense
that he froze the code at some time before then. (Based on CHANGELOG.gz,
my guess puts that date at October 27.)

I'm not sure you would be so happy to be recieving e-mail from me, but I
have a question about your X packages. I noticed from following your
prereleases, that the debian packages aren't xfree's 4.0.1 release, but
follow alot of what was going on in the CVS. I was wondering if you had a
list of what patches went into the debian package, or if you knew if the
Debian package supports ATI's Radeon chip, as it appears Xfree's CVS has
support for it now.
thanks for your time.

avoid the us.ibm.com, as I don't have access to Lotus Notes right now.
