Hi Christian,
Doesn't the upgrade scenario imply a "no-regression" on the part of GS
extensions?
Is this something we we can really claim, given that mutter (or whatever
the GNOME compositor will be called), sooner or later, is going to have to
move to the gsk?
It won't, that's why it has its own copy of clutter included.
