XFree86 Core Team Disbands
mumumu was among the many to write with this news: "XFree86's release engineer David Dawes has announced that "a majority of the XFree86 core team has voted in favour of my proposal to disband the core team". XFree86's News Headline has a short message about it. Why, all of a sudden?
What is the successor of the XFree86? Xouvert? freedesktop.org?"

They came in last in the latest Netcraft survey.
XFree will be replaced by Microsoft Windows.
I guess that when you have AIDS and a bleeding,prolapsed rectum, it is sort of hard to think about pixels and blit buffers.

We all knew X is obsolete but not a century old. Anyone willing to move X11 into the 21 century? Someone? ;-)

Welcome to the reason OSS doesn't succeed in the mainstream like commercial software does. Politics, idealism, and lack of interest screw it all up. It's viewed as much too fickle to be reliable. This reflects in the final products as well.
I'm not trolling but making a sincere point here in the hopes things improve. Reply if you disagree, but don't downmod me for it (just saying because I've had it happen before).

This is another great example of slashdot's editors twisting the facts to make a story more interesting.
For this and many other transgressions, I humbly submit that the answer be found in sacred jihad against slashdot's editors. Join anti-slash.

You say X doesn't suck, but then explain how it doesn't fully utilize graphics cards.
X doesn't work. I hate dragging a simple window and have a trail of tutti-fruity after it, or waiting 5 seconds for a menu to popup. Here's the part where you blame the window manager, or the graphics library, or the desktop environment.
XFree86 doesn't dare do a thing wrong. Hold on while we hack on yet another "extension," and then meanwhile in a Microsoft discussion complain that you can't hack on things that weren't in the core design of Windows.
