At X conference, Robert Scheifler mentioned that a group of people at AT&T
are implementing an X server for MS-DOS and looking for some volunteers.
How's this effort coming along?  I didn't volunteer because of my immediate
tasks, etc. but since I'm having problems getting Locus' UNIX V.3 X server
for my 386 PC, I would like to take their unfinished server implementation and
see if I can make it work on my system: Zenith Z-386 running Microport UNIX
system V.3 with EGA.  My interest is in a sample ddX/device driver part 
written for EGA or VGA type monitor (maybe also Hercules).  As to STREAMS/TLI 
IPC interface, I think I can pretty much figure it out.  If I can't, I can 
always look at HP's System V implementation which uses sockets, and buy socket 
library for my ethernet board.  Can any one related to above mentioned server 
implementation effort please contact me?  I am becoming desperate here.
Thanks...
