Hi Didier,

I wanted to make sure we have a closed loop on this issue.

As per UDS plans we're looking to update to xserver 1.14.  One of the
changes is that our pointer barriers work is now included upstream, so
we can drop the ubuntu PB patch.  However, the upstream version is
slightly different from what we had before, and so some changes will be
needed to Unity in order to work with it.

We can provide snapshot builds of the xserver 1.14 pre-release in a PPA,
but do you know of someone on the Unity side of things who would work on
adding support for 1.14 style barriers?  Do you have an escalation path
for key issues like this?

Thanks,
Bryce
