 3. Interoperability between version 1.x and 2.0
 
-FIXME
+There is little interaction between 1.x and 2.x versions of the X Input
+Extension. Clients are requested to avoid mixing XI1.x and XI2 code as much as
+possible. Several direct incompatibilities are observable:
+
+3.1 Limitations resulting from different variable ranges
+
+XI2 provides a larger range for some fields than XI1. As a result, XI1 clients
+may not receive data an XI2 client receives.
+These fields include:
+- devices with a deviceid of greater than 127 are invisible to XI1 clients.
+- key events and key grabs featuring larger than 255 can only be sent to XI2
+  clients.
+- no subpixel information is avialable to XI1 clients. If motion events are in
+  a subpixel range only, the server may omit these events and an XI 1.x client
+  will not receive events until the pixel boundary is crossed.
+
+
+3.2 Blocking of grabs
+
+XI1 grabs are different to XI2 grab and a device may not be grabbed through an
+XI2 grab if an XI1 grab is currently active on this device or vice versa.
+Likewise, a keycode or button already grabbed by an XI 1.x or XI2 client may
+not be grabbed with the same modifier combination by an XI2 or XI 1.x client,
+respectively.
+
+3.3 Invisibility of Master Devices
+
+XI 1.x was not designed with support for multiple master devices (see Section
+4). As a result, only the first master pointer and master keyboard are visible
+to XI 1.x clients, all other master devices are invisible and cannot be
+accessed from XI 1.x calls.

+4.4. The ClientPointer principle
+
+Many core protocol and some extension requests are ambiguous when multiple
+master devices are available (e.g. QueryPointer does not specfy which pointer).
+The X server does not have the knowledge to chose the contextually correct
+master device. For each client, one master pointer is designated as this
+clients's "ClientPointer". Whenever a client sends an ambiguous request (e.g.
+QueryPointer), the ClientPointer or the keyboard paired with the ClientPointer
+is chosen to provide the data for this request.
+
+This ClientPointer may be explicitly assigned to a client with the
+SetClientPointer call. If no ClientPointer is set when a client issues an
+ambiguous request, the server choses one device as the ClientPointer. The
+method of chosing a ClientPointer from the available master pointers is
+implementation-specific.
+
+If the master pointer currently set as ClientPointer for one or more clients is
+removed, the server may either unset the ClientPointer setting or change the
+ClientPointer to a different master pointer.
