[Lug-nuts] Re: Xorg stuff

Did anyone consider that very little work is being done on Xorg because it works. Forking is OK. But why? A little clean up and organization might be nice. I find these pronouncements from the "folks" at Fedora, really bothersome. Of course their non-political announcements are highly political LOL. At least they aren't going to Wayland. Which ,apparenlty, people who care don't like and aren't writing aps for. And the Wayland folks seem to have problems writing a bridge to X. I think they just have problems. It looks like they are going to an X fork called Xlibre. Or some such. MEGO. This strikes me as a big risk, for not much reward. Did the folks at Xorg reject some commits from someone who wanted to "fix" things or something? Why not try that? Personally, I push around vnc, when I'm playing with this stuff. But, someone has to draw the base image/screen somehow. So, what is all this churn going to get me? Fedora seems to have the problem that Schwartznegger identified with the California legislature: If you leave people alone in a room with nothing to do, they get into trouble.
