Hi Sleepless,

To my knowledge there is no "official" address; however one might be
available by combing through the Apple knowledge base.

Silver lining: there is a considerable amount of progress on this
issue, thanks to persons devoted to this effort in the OSS community,
specifically Ben Byer, among others. A great place for info is

www.x.org/wiki/XDarwin

which contains "unofficial" but highly "useable" (to an overwhelming
majority of us who use X11 in our daily work) and dare I say "stable"
(in my experience) snapshot of all the progress that's been
accumulated thus far. Please feel free to ask any specific questions
you may have.
