Here is a little more information on the X-server port for the NeXT Computer.
This information came to our organization from Dan Geer, the professor in
charge of Project Athena at MIT.

	- The server process is inside a Display PostScript (DPS) window.
	- The screen can be resized to full-screen capacity.
	- It has the NeXT look and feel, from a window-interface
	  perspective.
	- Once inside the window it is true X.11, ie. you must know X
	  to be able to use the program.
	- The program is really a translator from X to DPS on the NeXT.
	- Once the program is complete, it will be "FREE" on the UNIX
	  net.
	- The program should be complete by January 15, 1990.

Hope this helps.
