Er, yeah, that's me.  I keep promisin'...

Really, I'm *almost* ready to release it.  What is it?

		XMX, an X Protocol Multiplexor

It's a pseudo-server that permits n applications to display on m displays.
One display provides input (no passing the chalk) and there are no
late-joiners.  It was written to efficiently broadcast an instructor's X
session to each of 65 displays in our "electronic classroom" here at Brown.

We've been using it as it evolved for 2 years.  I'm currently diverted, but
in two weeks I should have time to do the final cleanup and release it.
