Due to an influx of spam, we have had to impose restrictions on new accounts. Please see this wiki page for instructions on how to get full permissions. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Update #1:

Due to abusive users subverting our CI facilities to mine cryptocurrency, breaking out of the container sandbox in the process, we have been forced to take actions to limit the usage of the public runners to official projects only.

The policy will be enforced on 2023-03-23 (or before if we detect abuses).

Please see this issue for more context and to see if and how you are impacted.

Draft: composite: Mark the COW unhittable

The composite overlay window (COW) can be queried from any X11 client, not just the X11 compositing manager.

If a client tries to get the composite overlay window, the Xserver will map the window and it will get all pointer events (the window being mapped and on top of the stack).

To avoid that issue, mark the composite overlay window as unhittable.

Closes: #1314 (closed)
