XQuartz-2.5.0 is done! Thanks to everyone who helped out with testing
the alphas, betas, and release candidates. Without your feedback,
support, and responsiveness, many issues would've slipped through the
cracks.
2.5.0 is a pretty sizable update from our last release (2.4.0) way
back in September. The long release cycle has been mainly due to my
desire to wait for fixes to land in a SnowLeopard SU which would
prevent our updates from breaking the system X11. Those updates
landed in 10.6.3, so SnowLeopard users will need to update to 10.6.3
first.
As with all Leopard versions, the Security Update that was released
today will overwrite some of the files this package installs, so we
recommend you install the SecUpdate first (and reinstall X11 after any
future SecUpdates).
There are really too many changes to list here, but the big ones
include moving to the 1.7.x server codebase and syncing up with all
other Xorg modules bringing us up to X11R7.5. libXplugin and quartz-
wm have seen a bit of work as well (most of which landed in the 10.6.3
release from Apple) to fix GLX performance for ATI cards and address
some odd behavior when using Exposé or wine (like Codeweavers
Crossover).

Users of previous versions should be able to update by selecting
"Check for X11 Updates" from the X11 menu.

Thanks, and enjoy!
