Add a entry to vk.xml reserving the MWS author ID for the Mercurius Window System, an open-source zero-trust network-native window system (https://mercurius.tebibyte.org). The ID will be used for a future Mercurius Vulkan WSI extension.

This reserves the MWS author ID for the Mercurius Window System:

https://mercurius.tebibyte.org/

Mercurius is a zero-trust open-source, network-native window system currently developing its Vulkan presentation interface. The author ID will be used for a future Mercurius Vulkan WSI extension.

Contact: Christopher Ross chris@tebibyte.org, mercurius@tebibyte.org

Could you rebase this and force-push? I'm not sure why, but github seems to think there's a huge diff and won't show it. I downloaded the file and compared and it's just the one line you added, but maybe you are based off an old commit or something like that.

Sure. It is literally a one line change so I clearly did it wrong. My apologies for that.
Or if it is easier could you just add

Thanks.

Done. You should see just a simple change.

Done. You should see just a simple change.

Thanks. BTW, github tries to interpret angle brackets as some sort of markup, so your comment above

<tag name="MWS" author="Mercurius Window System" contact="Christopher Ross, chris@tebibyte.org, mercurius@tebibyte.org" />

is invisible (at least in Chromium). Need to precede the left angle bracket with a backslash. Is very annoying (to be clear: github is annoying, not you).

Also, our process requires that people sign the Contributor License Agreement (see CLAbot comment above) before we can accept outside PRs, so please do that. Otherwise this is fine.
