X11``R7.8 development is underway for release possibly in 2013. 


## Features Added/Enhanced

* X Resource extension 1.2 

## Features Removed

* TBD 

## TODO

These have been discussed, but are not yet integrated to the source repos, and may or may not make the release: 

* XWayland integration 
* RandR extension 1.4 
* Video driver hotplugging 
* Add xf86-video-nested, xf86-video-modesetting to the katamari driver set 
* Replace Xephyr, Xvfb, Xnest, Xfake, etc. with Xorg using xf86-video-dummy and xf86-video-nested 
* [[Documentation|Development/Documentation/WritingDocumentation]]: Further integration across doc sets.  Docs from Book Sprint. 
* Referee [[DoubleBuffer|DoubleBuffer]] vs. libfb/Composite 
* Add Solaris Trusted Extensions security module which uses XACE ([[AlanCoopersmith|AlanCoopersmith]]). 
There are also a number of items on the [[ToDo|ToDo]] list waiting for someone to pick up the work, but those are less likely to make the release without anyone actively working on them. 


## Schedule

* TBD
