Sounds great; looks like you guys are the first with an official release 
using this code base.

Do note that we haven't finished a version of this software for release.
There aren't any technical changes pending aside from a few minor bugs, but
we have to satisfy our legal obligation to make sure we don't confuse
people about the origin of the software by misusing the XFree86 trademark.

It is a straightforward fork of XFree86 4.4 RC2 but not supported or
maintained by The XFree86 Project, Inc.  So, we have to fix various names 
and addresses.  Expect these changes to affect file names and various 
configuration options.
