Unfortunately that's not my intention. I have a completely new WS in mind, design-wise with no X dependency, just an X legacy support layer instead. The crucial part of X imho is the hardware support, that's why I want to stick to xorg-drivers*, just because that's the bit which can't be done properly without driver experts. X.org can't be fixed because it consists of all the X10 and X11 legacy we don't want to carry on in a new WS, we want a different WS, not a state-machine WS like X. And X.org won't be willing to accept patches which change its internal behavior radically. Kind regards, Anselm
