  • Release Notes for X11R6.8.2 the X.Orgfoundation the Xfree86 Project, Inc
    Release Notes for X11R6.8.2 The X.OrgFoundation The XFree86 Project, Inc. 9February 2005 Abstract These release notes contains information about features and their status in the X.Org Foundation X11R6.8.2 release. It is based on the XFree86 4.4RC2 RELNOTES docu- ment published by The XFree86™ Project, Inc. Thereare significant updates and dif- ferences in the X.Orgrelease as noted below. 1. Introduction to the X11R6.8.2 Release The release numbering is based on the original MIT X numbering system. X11refers to the ver- sion of the network protocol that the X Window system is based on: Version 11was first released in 1988 and has been stable for 15 years, with only upwardcompatible additions to the coreX protocol, a recordofstability envied in computing. Formal releases of X started with X version 9 from MIT;the first commercial X products werebased on X version 10. The MIT X Consortium and its successors, the X Consortium, the Open Group X Project Team, and the X.OrgGroup released versions X11R3 through X11R6.6, beforethe founding of the X.OrgFoundation. Therewill be futuremaintenance releases in the X11R6.8.x series. However,efforts arewell underway to split the X distribution into its modular components to allow for easier maintenance and independent updates. We expect a transitional period while both X11R6.8 releases arebeing fielded and the modular release completed and deployed while both will be available as different consumers of X technology have different constraints on deployment. Wehave not yet decided how the modular X releases will be numbered. We encourage you to submit bug fixes and enhancements to bugzilla.freedesktop.orgusing the xorgproduct, and discussions on this server take place on <[email protected]>.
