I think the poster is asking if it's primarily an experiment in X extensions and reimplementation, or if fd.o XServer intends to compete for the same ecological niche as XFree86. For example, pretend he is an OS vendor. A legitimate question of an OS vendor is "I've already got XFree86, but I like XServer. Is this a viable replacement?" -Erik --- Alan Coopersmith <Alan.Coopersmith-UdXhSnd/[email protected]> wrote: Steve Salazar wrote: > A lot of people are > assuming (and are exited) that in a year or so the fd.o xserver will > replace XFree. Is that true? Replace XFree86 how? In a specific distribution/flavor of Linux, BSD, or Unix? If so, you would have to ask the people responsible for that distribution. There are dozens of distros/OS'es distributing part or all of XFree86, and they each decide independently what software they will want to ship with their releases. -- -Alan Coopersmith- [email protected] Sun Microsystems, Inc. -- Operating Platforms Group Solaris x86 & Interface Technology: X Window System _______________________________________________ xserver mailing list [email protected] http://freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xserver _____________________________________________________________ Sluggy.Net: The Sluggy Freelance Community!
