  [ Daniel van Vugt ]
  * New upstream release 0.26.0 (https://launchpad.net/mir/+milestone/0.26.0)
    - ABI summary:
      . mirclient ABI unchanged at 9
      . mirserver ABI bumped to 43
      . mircommon ABI unchanged at 7
      . mirplatform ABI unchanged at 14
      . mirprotobuf ABI unchanged at 3
      . mirplatformgraphics ABI unchanged at 11
      . mirclientplatform ABI unchanged at 5
      . mirinputplatform ABI unchanged at 6
      . mircore ABI unchanged at 1
    - Enhancements:
      . New/improved toolkit APIs: MirInputConfig and related functions,
        MirWindow and related functions, DisplayConfig and related functions,
        MirScreencastSpec and related functions,
      . Support for configuring input configuration
      . Introduce toolkit extension mechanism for platform specific APIs.
      . Toolkit extensions for: mesa_drm_auth, set_gbm_device and
        window_coordinate_translation
      . Screencasting to a specific MirBuffer.
      . Add DisplayConfigurationController::base_configuration() so downstreams
        can get the base configuration. (Weirdly they can already set it.).
      . x11 platform: allow adjustable scale parameter.
      . Added EDID support: client API, server logging and in mirout.
      . mirout: Add newer attributes only available in the new display
        config API: scaling factor, subpixel arrangement and form factor.
      . mirout: Log the orientation and logical size of each output too.
      . Replace the mir::Server-overridable Reports with Observers.
      . Add xkbcommon to mirclient.pc Requires.private.
      . Deprecate legacy toolkit APIs that will be removed in Mir 1.0
      . Introduced 'client-side vsync', which dramatically reduces latency
        from the client to the screen (particularly for nested servers like
        Unity8).
