Good to see XFree86 at last is being forked. Interestingly, the project 
(with it's weird name) is not placing it self as an opponent to 
XFree86, it rather wants to complement it.

I also do not see any mention of Keith Packard (the original person who 
planed to fork X) here. It seems this is different than www.xwin.org 
which is packard's project.

Enough rumur. Let's see what comes out of this project, and wether we 
can forget all the problems of XFree86 or not/

Cheers
