That's good to hear.  Two questions: (1) will the server code be available for
both the 16-inch and 16-inch NCD terminals?  (2) Will I be able to continue to
have X11R3 clients display on the new server? [We want to get X11R4 up but only
after our NCD terminals are able to cope with it.]

Thanks in advance.
