     Does anybody out there (from MIT, especially) know anything about a
windowing package called X that's come out of Project Athena?  Is this in
the public domain?  Would it be applicable to the Amiga?  Would it be
something that the ANSI window committee would be influenced by (or is the
committee being bought off by a particular vendor like they were with DEC's
escape and control sequence standard or Intel's (bletcherous, in my opinion)
floating point standard)?
							whatever,
