[arch-general] Xorg18 status and Gnome

[Robert Howard]

Don't read websites that compare arch to debian.

Hi,
Why is it that Arch seems to take longer than say other distros such as
Ubuntu, Debian, etc, to support newer versions of Xorg and Gnome? I was
curious about that process.
While Debian/Ubuntu/etc distros seem to be supporting the Gnome desktop just
fine, it appears that others most noticeably that of Gentoo and other such
similar distros, mask or test out Gnome/Xorg, rather than releasing it
strate away into say in Arches case, the extra/core repos.
I had another question, relating to that of Arch, some webpages I have found
compare Arch to Debian Cid/Unstable. How true is this, and exactly in what
way is Arch Linux itself, like that of Debian Cid? Thanks!
