In addition too that, we will need to bring a copy of cairo and pixman in-tree for a while to ensure the new renderer will work everywhere.
I don't really like the idea of bringing cairo and pixman into the tree. For Windows and Mac, aren't they already included somehow? For Linux, by the time of release, the distros should already be up-to-date with the latest Cairo assuming that 1.14 is released in mid-October as planned (see cairo mailing list 5 Sept).
Is it only the downscaling bug that necessitates bringing these in-tree? Or are there other bugs needing new cairo/pixman features?
Also, anyone happen to have a good demonstration of the problem they should show me? I'd like to improve the test case I wrote for this, and would help to see some real-world examples of where people have run into the bug.
So bug #804162 is solvable by bringing cairo and pixman into tree. That brings us down to 10 bugs.
Probably best to put us into a freeze, to deal with these bugs (and probably some others). Is there a reason to not plan for this kind of release process after GSoC has ended?
Definitely need to wait for GSoC to end... and the a little bit longer.
What percentage of the bugs have owners so far? This early in the release, a focus on just getting owners for the unowned ones might be the most productive thing to do...
