Might I recommend that you use XFree86 and XDarwin instead of X11 in
that case.
You don't want to risk losing your Macs due to complications from bugs
in beta software. XFree86 is public source and is a "released
product" under Mac OS X 10.2 so you should be in good shape.

It seems that the beta of X11 for Jaguar has completely vanished from

servers. I am a systems admin at a public high school with about 2000
macs.
In an effort to fend off district pressure to replace all of them with
Dells,
I am attempting to leverage open source technologies (Radmind, Rsync,
Open
Office, etc) to lower costs and create a better computing environment.
Since
we have licenses for 10.2 that is what I need to deploy. There is no
money
for new licenses, and attempting to procure more money from district
to make
the x11 apps work will only hasten a move to the dark side. I must
admit that
the way that version 1 of X11 replaced all mention of the betas was
rather
annoying to me. I run panther at home but an enterprise does not
upgrade
overnight.
Is there a copy of the beta somewhere that I may not have noticed?
