   The latest issue of MacWeek reported that an X-11 server for NeXT had
   been developed at MIT.  Does anyone have further information on this?

The Summer 1989 issue of "NeXT NeWS" (a regional sales office
newsletter that I received the other day) says that some Athena
networking services, including Kerberos and Hesiod, have been ported,
and that the X port is 80% complete.  X will run inside a NextStep
window.  It's expected "this summer".

(Yes, I found the capitalization of the newsletter title amusing too :-)
