The offer still stands. I haven't pushed the issue because I'm not otherwise involved with XFree86 development. My desire is simply to facilitate, accelerate, and streamline-ate (I had to get that -ate in there for parallelism) the development process. I can also be reached at my day job, should someone decide to contact me (kurt dot wall at timesys dot com).
