Just as a matter of interest: RedHat/Fedora decided to switch from XFree86 (FC 1) to Xorg (FC 2 and subsequent versions) because they disagreed w/ the new license policy of XFree86. They have no plans to ship XFree86 under its current license! http://www.xfree86.org/pipermail/forum/2004-January/001892.html http://www.xfree86.org/legal/licenses.html Cheers, Didier. --- Didier F.B Casse | PhD student | Singapore Synchrotron light Source (SSLS) Email: didierbe AT sps dot nus dot sg | Web: http://ssls.nus.edu.sg GPG Key 1024D/B3C57D01 2004-06-23 ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285 _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
