Libinput 0.13 was released today as one of the final steps before Libinput 1.0.

Libinput 0.13 alters the tap motion threshold to be a fixed distance on all touchpads, the edge scrolling motion threshold now accumulates, and the velocity calculation on slow movements has been fixed.

There's also various other changes for Libinput 0.13 with Peter Hutterer and Hans de Goede -- both Red Hat developers -- have contributed 49 changes for this latest pre-1.0 release.
