Nice, thank you!

I've been running 358 for a good while now, I'd say it's ready for
experimental. Are you happy with the new libglvnd-nvidia package? In
358 it holds libGLdispatch.so.0 and libOpenGL.so.0.

I am working on the 361 beta, there's lots of changes in the libraries
including full support the new libglvnd introduced in 355, I'll
probably be done and commit to SVN in a few days for review.

Given that it's open source and both Mesa and AMD plan to support
this, at some point we should probably start a discussion with all the
maintainers involved, to decide how to deal with this, and how it will
work with the update-alternatives system.

Any thoughts?

Kind regards,
