SYNOPSIS
Release 6.4 of X Version 11 was brought to you by The Open
Group X Project Team.
DESCRIPTION
The Open Group X Project Team was created as the successor
to the X Consortium, Inc., after the X Consortium ceased
operations. The purpose of The X Project Team is to foster
development, evolution, and maintenance of the X Window
System.
The X Consortium was an independent, not-for-profit
Delaware membership corporation. It was formed in 1993 as
the successor to the MIT X Consortium.
The X Window System was created in the mid-1980s at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1988, MIT
formed a member-funded consortium to provide the technical
and administrative leadership necessary to support further
development of the X Window System. In 1992, MIT and the
membership decided it was in their best interests to move
the consortium out of MIT and create an independent,
stand-alone organization. All rights to the X Window Sys-
tem were assigned by MIT to X Consortium, Inc. on January
1, 1994. X Consortium, Inc. closed its doors on December
31, 1996. All rights to the X Window System have been
assigned to the Open Group.
