Yeah, I think so. It will likely be removed after the next stable release. But so you're still able to stay on this release
Removed after the next stable release? I thought the plan was to do it asap.

There is a
lack of VGA driver also. I think the PowerVR ones don't have a one either.
VGA? Why the hell would a tablet use a decades old analog video format? *shrug*
EDIT: Oooooooh, now I get it. 2011, 10W. Cederview Atom CPUs aren't for tablets. They appear to be more for netbooks and small form-factor desktops. The
stuff wikipedia links to are
miniITX motherboards for tiny computer builds.
And look what's on the miniITX board:

Nevermind the VGA ports. Why are there COM and LPT ports on that board? What possible use could a user have for those?
If DX9 is dropped, Win32 is dropped, why keeping the DSound audio backend while XAudio2 is here ?
Because nobody has dropped it? I haven't looked into one of them at all, but I know some of our audio backends are in a very bad state. Is the XAudio2 backend fine?

i do not know but i found some forum thread that recommend to use xaudio instead of dsound already and dsound is at dx9 what xaudio2 is at dx11…
xaudio2 backend is superior to dsound in every way I can find, and openal covers the edge cases.

Works helluva better on Win 7 than the DSound API
