X.Org community releases X11R7.2

February 15, 2007. The X.Org community is proud to announce the release of 
X11R7.2, the third modular release of the X Window System.

X11R7.2 supports Linux, BSD, Solaris, Microsoft Windows and GNU Hurd systems. 
It incorporates significant stability and correctness fixes, including 
improved autoconfiguration heuristics, enhanced support for GL-based 
compositing managers such as Compiz and Beryl, and improved support for PCI 
systems with multiple domains. It also incorporates the new, more extensible 
XACE security policy framework.

The full source code is free to use, modify and redistribute and is available 
from http://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.2/ and mirrors worldwide.

For more information on the X Window System, including how to get involved 
with development, please see http://wiki.x.org.

Not that `release' means much anymore other than `now we can tell which versions of things actually work with each other'. (There should be a more coherent way of tracking this...)
