I would like some help in finding out about X-Windows. If anyone out there can point me in the direction of 'official' specs, product features or anything else that would clue me in , I'd be deeply grateful! Failing (or in addition to) that, can anyone give me a name and/or phone number at MIT I can call? I'm assuming here that X-Windows is 'supported' and distributed by MIT - is this correct? If not, who (if anyone) does support and/or distribute X-Windows? Replies via e-mail please, to: patrick {ihnp4, hplabs, amdcad, ucbvax!dual}!fortune!stirling

Date: Tue, 26 May 87 11:29:01 PDT From: clt@Sun.COM (Charlie Tierney - Sun Technical Consulting - MtV) Hi Patrick! MIT distributes X version 10 (the latest) for $100. There is no support whatsoever. What you see is what you get. X version 11 will be out early next year - and that will be the last X from MIT. Sun will ship a merged X-NeWS window system, fully supported, next spring. Hope that's some help. -- Charlie Tierney sun!ctierney Sun Microsystems Technical Consulting (415) 691-2396
