Hi Scott,

Ouch! :-)
Are you looking for someone who will work on BOTH X.org and Xfree?
That's a big chunk of work...
At this point, all the activity appears to be on the X.org side.
If you could help Torrey with getting X.org R7 to build on Darwin
(using autoconf, I presume) he and I -- and many others -- would be
grateful.
The new build system in R7 is fairly complicated:

The good is that it *is* more standard, since it uses autoconf.
The bad news is that it is *different*, so Torrey is probably
unclear what all needs to be changed, and the rest of us are
*completely* clueless.
I also have some knowledge of autoconf etc. Perhaps Torrey could
outline what problems he is running into (if any).
Peter
