+- update to release 1.0.0
+  This is the initial release of the xf86-video-amdgpu driver.
+  It was forked from the xf86-video-ati radeon driver and modified to
+  support the amdgpu kernel driver via libdrm_amdgpu, and by extension
+  the latest AMD GPU families Tonga, Carrizo, Iceland, Fiji and Stoney.
+  Some functionality was removed because it's not relevant for the GPUs
+  supported by the amdgpu kernel driver, but other than that the two
+  drivers are more or less on par with respect to functionality and bug
+  fixes.
+  Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release!
+- get rid of _service file (no longer needed with official release
+  now being available)
