V11 will be available for alpha release in Feb 87, and beta March 87.
I don't expect a final release until June.  I don't know exactly what you
are doing with X (porting the system or writing apps?) but if you are
writing apps, it is rumoured that V10 will be supported.  if you are porting
the system, it is supposedly completely rewritten.  for good reason.  it
couldn't be much more convoluted, but it is the best PD window system for
unix. (only?)

Also, if you are an app writer, you might want to contact MIT or HP and
ask about Xrlib.  It is available for v10r4 and is a GEM/MS-WIND/MAC like
library package.  user-interface generators (e.g. GEM RCS) will be avail.
at some in the future.
