No blockers reported since the last RC, so let's get it out of the way.

The new evdev 2.1 is here, and it's sparkly and shiny and whatnot.

Note that this version does not grab the event device anymore. If you're
updating from evdev 2.0, ensure you have [1] in the server to avoid events
being sent to the TTY.  Other patches of interest [2-4] are recommended to
avoid duplicate events.

Consider the evdev 2.0 branch to be discontinued.
The shortlog since RC 3:

Fernando Carrijo (1):
      Fix error message

Peter Hutterer (2):
      Store device file's minor/major to avoid duplicate devices.
      evdev 2.1
