"There are also real advantages to ATI's driver being separated from the
XFree86 core distribution, Smith asserted, saying that "it's a nightmare
for the XFree developers" to keep all of the different modules
up-to-date. Practically speaking, he noted, it would be a pain for ATI's
customers to have to download XFree CVS or wait for the yearly XFree
release cycle to get the latest Radeon driver improvements."
