How is work divided ?

[Tomasz Wegrzanowski]

I'm interested in windowing toolkits architucture.
How is work divided between:

X font server
X server
window manager
Xlib
GDK
GTK
various Gnome libraries

In particular :
    - What path does font data follow from font server to screen ?
    - Who decides where will new windows go ?
    - What all those Gnome libraries do ?
    - Who caches what ?
