My plan is to start bringing new libdrm/mesa7.10/Xorg1.10 in the next days to testing. This will improve (me prays) the situation for open source drivers but will probably break the proprietary drivers for some time.

I don't follow the closed stuff. Maybe you know something about the state of catalyst and nvidia with new Xorg 1.10.

I would like to have libdrm/mesa7.10/xorg1.9 in extra first. Mesa 7.9 has its problems, so I don't think going to 7.10 is a bad idea. So far the bug count for xorg-server is quite low at this moment, all problems we're facing now comes from drivers, so I don't see reason to jump to a release candidate of 1.10 now.
