+cairo 0.6 release requirements
+==============================
+The cairo 0.6 snapshot is intended to intended to have the last of the
+API _changes_ prior to cairo 1.0. Here they are:
-✓ Fix the BadMatch error introduced between 0.5.0 and 0.5.1:

+API changes
+-----------
+ A9. consistent error handling for all objects
+ Difficulty: Easy to implement to get the API right. Hard to test.
+ Status: Done for cairo_t, cairo_path_t, and cairo_pattern_t.
+ Still need to do cairo_font_face_t,
+ cairo_scaled_font_t, and cairo_surface_t. Carl has
+ signed up for this one.
- (It turns out this was just exposing an old bug in libpixman
- 0.1.4 which is already fixed in libpixman 0.1.5)
+ A10. cairo_font_options_t
+ Difficulty: Moderate
+ Status: Owen has done all the hard thinking, and we've got
+ consensus on the API now. Owen has sent two versions
+ of the patch to the list.
- Add a workaround for Render's overlapping source/dest bug
- ✓ Use XCopyArea when possible (integer translation)
- Otherwise make a copy of the source
+ A11. cairo_xlib_surface_create needs to be screen-aware
+ Difficulty: Easy
+ Status: Keith has cooked up a patch with an APi that should be
+ sufficient. It still needs testing on multi-screen X
+ server.
- Fix the cache lock deadlocking problems.
- Difficulty: Hard
- Status: The cache code was ugly enough that I ended up doing a
- major rewrite rather than just reviewing the
- locking. The upside is that the rewrite should also
- add the missing metrics caches which will fix some
- performance problems with text measurement. Almost
- done now.
+ A12. cairo_xlib_surface_set_drawable
+ Difficulty: Easy
+ Status: Keith has a patch sitting ready on the list.

-✓A4. Make set_source consistent

-✓A5. Add cairo_clip/fill/stroke_preserve

- Difficulty: trivial

Difficulty: trivial to add API, moderate to actually optimize
based on it
Status: cworth has sent API proposal to list
