---------------
mir (0.1.8+14.04.20140411-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  [ Daniel van Vugt ]
  * New upstream release 0.1.8 (https://launchpad.net/mir/+milestone/0.1.8)
    - mirclient ABI unchanged, still at 7. Clients do not need rebuilding.
    - mirserver ABI bumped to 18. Shells need rebuilding.
    - Server API changes affecting shells:
      . GLRenderer::tessellate() changed syntax.
      . graphics::Platform::create_display() has a new parameter allowing you
        to customize the compositor's (E)GL configutation.
      . Renderable::buffer(unsigned long frameno) is now:
        Renderable::buffer(void const* user_id). See below.
      . Renderable::should_be_rendered_in() is replaced by a more natural:
        Renderable::visble()
      . input::Surface::name() returns by value instead of reference now,
        to ensure future thread safety.
    - Switched EventHub device enumeration and hotplug to Udev. NOTE! This
      means mir_test_* can't run natively on touch devices any more without
      some setup first:
        sudo mount -o remount,rw /
        sudo apt-get update
        sudo apt-get install -y umockdev
        umockdev-run -- bin/mir_unit_tests
    - Added logging for HWC events.
    - Continued consolidation of Surface classes toward a simpler architecture.
    - Introduced "RenderableList" as the way to sample the Scene contents,
      and started using that in the default compositor.
    - Introduced physical length units and conversion (geometry::Length) in
      preparation for arbitrary DPI rendering.
    - Added some decorations to demo-shell; shadows and basic title bars, all
      anti-aliased and high-DPI scalable.
    - Multi-monitor frame sync has been redesigned to eliminate the need for
      frame number tracking.
    - Bugs (and enhancements) resolved:
      . [enhancement] Please move input detection to libudev (LP: #1237784)
      . [enhancement] Add a clamping resize mode to GLRenderer (LP: #1259887)
      . [regression] Intermittent loss of multimonitor frame sync
        (LP: #1290306)
      . [enhancement] Make GL config options configurable (LP: #1290780)
      . memcheck-test doesn't test anything when DISABLED_GTEST_DISCOVERY is
        enabled (LP: #1291876)
      . "Error opening DRM device" is always followed by "Unknown error -(some
        negative number)" (LP: #1292384)
      . Rendering/composition gets stopped early (LP: #1293896)
      . Ubuntu Touch Settings and terminal apps are not rendering correctly on
        rotate. (LP: #1294048)
      . [regression] Apps are much slower to open (LP: #1294051)
      . Settings app opens to a blank screen unless given enough time to render
        or the app is touched (LP: #1294053)
      . TestClientInput/DemoPrivateProtobuf memory leak is causing regular CI
        test failures (LP: #1295231)
      . OSK touch events "fall through" and hit surface behind them
        (LP: #1297878)
      . [enhancement] add a test for composite of last client post
        (LP: #1298596)
      . [regression] Surfaces vanish as soon as their edges touch the edge of
        screen (L...
