XFree86 Question

[Samuel A. Mullen]

A better place to ask this question might be to the X mailing lists or
newsgroups.  I'm sure you already know that.

Would you be willing to document what you have done, how things work,
what you have experienced installing 4.0 for a future meeting.  I think
that your experiences would probably make a pretty good presentation.  I
personally would love to hear someone speak on X4.0.  I'm sure that
others would too.

Of course, I also may be out of line asking you to do that since I've
never even been to a meeting...yet.
