Nouveau - Sep 2016 - New official version to get fixes/improvements into distribution packages

Hello everybody,

I would like to ask whether there will be new official version of
nouveau because I currently have to build my own nouveau package to have
a working multi-screen environment. This is due to some fixes that were
applied after the 1.0.12 release.

As I guess that I am not the only one that uses a distribution that
relies on the (most recent) official releases rather than more or less
randomly selected git commits for creating packages.
I just wanted to raise this question and would appreciate it, if I could
get back to official package releases rather than custom-built ones.

Thank you for your attention.

Best regards
Thomas

In addition to that bugfix, as Xorg 1.19 is being released we also
need to release something with the new ABI support. I will be
attempting to push a release in the next day or two unless someone
beats me to it (or objects). I've never done a release before, so
someone else beating me to it is definitely the preferred option.

Cheers,

  -ilia
