Re: Make XWinrc work on Xming


Hi,

OK we have a dilemma here. The codebase needs maintaining.

Cygwin/X (server and full X11 installation) is too useful to neglect, Xming
is fairly new and little known ('simple' server only) and lacks a 'proper'
home (i.e. mail on obsolete site http://sourceware.org/win32-x11/, wiki on
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Xming). My view is that both 'products' are too
useful to be homed separate because of their differences in compilation and
dependencies. We need a debate here to stimulate interest in improving the
code base, as well as provisioning help for user problems.
Any opinions?
How should we proceed?
How/where should the codebase be maintained/improved/homed?

Colin Harrison
