	X Window System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		X's usage of the terms "client" and "server" is the reverse of what people often expect, in that the "server" is the user's local display rather than the remote machine.
		X was initially conceived at MIT in 1984 as a collaboration between Jim Gettys of Project Athena and Bob Scheifler of the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science.
		X development at this time was moribund [12]; most technical innovation since the X Consortium had dissolved had taken place in the XFree86 project [13].

	X Press Release - X Consortium transfer to TOG (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		"X is now mainstream technology, and since the first commercial release in 1986 it has matured to the point where a dedicated consortium is no longer essential to its on-going support," explains Robert W. Scheifler, president of the X Consortium.
		Broadway, the code name for the next release of the X Window System, will be completed as planned by the end of the year, and will be made freely available to the public under the same terms as previous X Consortium releases.
		In 1995, the X Consortium was named prime contractor for development of the next release of CDE and Motif.

		The X keyboard model is broken into two layers: server-specific codes (called keycodes) which represent the physical keys, and server-independent symbols (called keysyms) which represent the letters or words that appear on the keys.
		The staff members at the X Consortium responsible for this release are: Donna Converse (emeritus), Stephen Gildea (emeritus), Kaleb Keithley, Matt Landau (emeritus), Ralph Mor (emeritus), Janet O'Halloran, Bob Scheifler, Ralph Swick, Dave Wiggins (emeritus), and Reed Augliere.
		The X Window System standard was originally developed at the Laboratory for Computer Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and all rights thereto were assigned to the X Consortium on January 1, 1994.

		Acknowledgements The X Test Suite was produced by UniSoft Group Limited under contract to the MIT X Consortium.
		The Xlib changes for this had only been released to members of the X Consortium at the time this distribution was released.
		The test suite is used extensively at the X Consortium, and at the time of this release nearly all bugs reported by this test suite when running on monochrome and 8-bit color systems (as well as some 12-bit and 24-bit systems) have been corrected in the sources maintained at MIT.

		Bob Scheifler, the president of the X Consortium gave the annual update on the state of X and the X Consortium.
		When the X Consortium was formed from the group at MIT, Scheifler's plans were to return to the research world.
		The X Consortium is also examining support for multimedia X, both by a public workshop held after the conference, and through its efforts in developing an audio standard, CommonAudio.

	Broadway / Xweb FAQ
		There are three pieces to security: an extension to the PC X server, a piece of code on the firewall and a security manager that interfaces with the user to authorize data exchanges between trusted and untrusted applications.
		The benefit of X Web is the ability to centrally deploy and manage X application access while eliminating the costs associated with training users on the semantics of the X Window System protocol.
		An X client that displays within a browser is said to be "embedded" when a user can not "detach" it and display it outside of the browser, much in the same fashion as one can not detach a document from within Microsoft Word.

	The X Window System
		X reverses these roles, which, as the locations of the hosts are reversed, is quite appropriate:
		Microsoft is in the process of buying infrastructure to provide this to their customers using proprietary protocols; X has been providing this for over ten years now.
		In the "ancient" past, X was developed at MIT as one of the components of Project Athena.

	FSF - The X Window's Trap
		In its last year, the X Consortium made a plan to restrict the forthcoming X11R6.4 release so that it will not be free software.
		If you said yes when the X Consortium asked you not to use copyleft, you put the X Consortium in a position to license and restrict its version of your program, along with the code for the core of X. The X Consortium did not carry out this plan.
		The X Consortium and Open Group can no longer exert moral suasion by saying that it is wrong to say no. This will make it easier to decide to copyleft your X-related software.

		The Open Group’s X Window System Release 6.3, code-named "Broadway" provides the ability to launch X clients from within a Web browser, either across a corporate intranet or the Internet.
		y integrating X application access and Web protocols, X Web provides the ability to centrally deploy and manage X application access while eliminating the costs associated with training users on the semantics of the X Window System’s protocol.
		Further, access to enterprise applications from a Web-browser is accelerated, as X Web reduces the time to market by eliminating the need to re-code existing applications in Java.
