<title>README for XFree86&tm; 3.3.6
<author>The XFree86 Project, Inc
<date>13 October 1999


<abstract>

XFree86 is a port of X11R6.3 that supports several Unix and Unix-like
operating systems on Intel and other platforms.  The 3.3.x versions
of XFree86 are considered the "legacy branch" of XFree86. The majority
of development is being done in the XFree86-4 branch. We will continue
to maintain XFree86-3.3.x to some degree at least throughout the year
2000.
The release is available as source patches
against the X Consortium X11R6.3 code and the XFree86 3.3.5 release.
Binary distributions for many architectures are also available.

For a detailed list of changes, refer to the CHANGELOG file in the
source distribution.

(*) Note, chips marked in this way have either limited support or
the drivers for them are not actively maintained.

All of the above are supported in both 256 color, and some are supported
in mono and 16 color modes, and some are supported an higher color depths.

The monochrome server also supports generic VGA cards, using 64k of video
memory in a single bank,
the Hercules monochrome card,
the Hyundai HGC1280,
Sigma LaserView, Visa and Apollo monochrome cards.

The VGA16 server supports memory banking with the ET4000, Trident, ATI,
NCR, OAK and Cirrus 6420 chipsets allowing virtual display sizes up to
about 1600x1200 (with 1MB of video memory).  For other chipsets the display
size is limited to approximately 800x600.

In addition, several <tt>README</tt> files and tutorial documents are provided.
These are available in <tt>/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc</tt> in the binary
distributions, and in  <tt>xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc</tt> in
the source distribution. 

The files <htmlurl name="QuickStart.doc" url="QuickStart.html"> and
<htmlurl name="README.Config" url="Config.html"> should be
consulted for 
information on how to set up the XFree86 servers.  All supplied
documents, manual pages, and the <url name="XFree86 FAQ"
url="http://www.XFree86.org/FAQ"> should be read before contacting the
XFree86 team for assistance.

Documentation on SVGA driver development can be found in the directory
<tt>/usr/X11R6/lib/Server/VGADriverDoc</tt> in the binary
distribution, and in the directory
<tt>xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/VGADriverDoc</tt> in the source

<sect>The XFree86 Project, Inc.
<p>

The XFree86 Project, Inc, was founded to accomplish two major goals:
<enum>
	<item>To provide a vehicle by which XFree86 can be represented in
	   X Consortium, Inc, the organization responsible for the
	   design, development, and release of The X Window System.
	<item>To provide some basic funding for acquisition of facilities for
	   ongoing XFree86 development, largely to consist of new video
	   hardware and basic computing facilities.
</enum>
The first of these was the primary motivation.  We have held discussions
with the X Consortium on and off for many months, attempting to find an
avenue by which our loosely-organized free software project could be
given a voice within the X Consortium.  The bylaws of the Consortium
would not recognize such an organization.  After an initial investigation
about funding, we decided to form our own corporation to provide the
avenue we needed to meet the requirements of the X Consortium bylaws.

By doing this, we were able to be involved in the beta-test interval for
X11R6, and have contributed the majority of XFree86 to the X11R6 and X11R6.1
core
release.  The version of XFree86 in the initial X11R6 core is 3.0.  The
version of XFree86 in the current X11R6.3 release is 3.2.

An additional benefit of this incorporation is that The XFree86 Project,
Inc has obtained outside financial support for our work.  This will
hopefully give us the freedom to be more pro-active in obtaining new
video hardware, and enable us to release better products more quickly,
as we will be able to go and get what we need, and get it into the hands
of the people who can do the work.

The current Board of Directors and Officers of the The XFree86 Project,
Inc, are:
<itemize>
       <item>David Dawes, President and Secretary
       <item>Dirk Hohndel, Vice-President
       <item>Robin Cutshaw, Director
       <item>Marc Evans, Director
       <item>Glenn Lai, Director
       <item>Rich Murphey, Treasurer
       <item>Jim Tsillas, Director
       <item>Jon Tombs, Director
       <item>David Wexelblat, Director
</itemize>
Email to <it>&lt;BOD@XFree86.org&gt;</it> reaches the board of directors. 
       
Our bylaws have been crafted in such a way to ensure that XFree86 is and
always will be a free software project.  There is no personal financial
benefit to any member of the Core Team or any other XFree86 participant.
All assets of the corporation remain with the corporation, and, in the
event of the dissolution of the corporation, all assets will be turned over
to the X Consortium, Inc.  It is hoped that by doing this, our corporation
will be merely a formalization of what we have been doing in the past,
rather than something entirely new.

As of March 1997, The XFree86 Project has revised its source/binary
access and release policy.  The main points of the new policy are:
<itemize>
  <item>There will be no more time-limited public binary-only beta
	releases.  Instead we plan to increase the frequency of full
	public releases to about four releases per year.
  <item>The source access/use is divided into three categories:
	<itemize>
	  <item>End users.  End users have access to only the source
		of full public releases.  The main reason for this
		restriction is that our development code often contains
		code from other sources which cannot be released to the
		public immediately.
	  <item>Active developers (members of the XFree86 ``developer team'').
		Active developers must formally become non-voting members
		of the XFree86 Project, and have full access to our
		internal development source.  They are permitted to make
		time-limited binaries (in coordination with the Core Team)
		of the servers they are actively working on available to
		external testers for specific testing.
	  <item>Commercial members.  Commercial members are non-voting
		members of The XFree86 Project who donate
		US&dollar;5000/year to the Project.  Additionally, companies
		who contribute significantly to the development effort of
		XFree86 can be awarded commercial membership by the Core
		Team on a yearly bases.  Commercial members can use the
		internal XFree86 development source for derived binary-only
		products providing that they take full responsibility for
		supporting the product, and don't call it ``XFree86''
		(although the derivation of the product must be
		acknowledged in any accompanying documentation).  Binary
		packages for the OSs we support which are simply compiled
		from our internal source without significant added value
		are explicitly NOT allowed.
	</itemize>
</itemize>

Here is a list of the organizations and individuals who have provided
sponsorship to The XFree86 Project, Inc, either by financial contribution
or by the donation of equipment and resources.  The XFree86 Project, Inc
gratefully acknowledges these contributions, and hopes that we can do
justice to them by continuing to release high-quality free software for
the betterment of the Internet community as a whole.

sponsored and organized the 1st XFree86 hothouse as part of the Atlanta

more progress than in any other week in the history of The XFree86 Project.
We are already planning to repeat this in 2000.

UUNET Communications Services, Inc, deserves special mention.  This
organization stepped forward and contributed the entire 1994 X Consortium

involvement in X11R6.
