Wow, what a crackpot website.

The ship sailed when Keith Packard, brilliant programmer and X.org project lead, decided that the era of X11 is over, and no further development will happen to the Xserver, and that the rootless Xserver for Wayland, in the near future, will be the only actually supported version.

This lead to the weird fork of Xlibre that is more about politics than it is about technological solutions.

Everyone has chosen to abandon the security nightmare that is X11, somehow it took 15 years instead of 5. But hey, we finally made it.
