The mailing list is not specific to any particular hardware platform but covers the entire range of systems that X.desktop runs on. Below is an extract from the next IXI Newsletter announcing the formation of this service. IXI Announces the Commencement of a USENET Mailing List When you receive this newsletter IXI will have set up a mailing list for anyone interested in IXI products. The mailing list will have five seperate sections; a support access point, a general discussion and announcement forum, discussion forums and support access points for each of the IXI products, X.desktop, X.deskterm and the OSF/Motif Development Kit.
