Cygwin/XFree86 Leaving XFree86.org

Posted by simoniker on from the oh-the-shenanigans dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The Cygwin/XFree86 project is leaving XFree86.org. For those that don't know, Cygwin/XFree86 is a port of the X Window System to Cygwin (which provides a *nix-like API on Windows). Here is the announcement and the start of the trouble. The XFree86 project has pushed away more developers than most projects ever have - is this the beginning of the end for XFree86?"

    I just love it when people make websites with revision systems BEFORE releasing code. Morons.. Whatever happened to HAVING something, THEN making a website? Its like the website is more important than the code.
