This really has nothing to do with Fedora. The decision was made to
switch to Xorg (apparently like most if not all the other major
distro's) and it is a fork of the XFree project. Life goes on.
This endless discussion that you seeming want to promote would be better
off in private emails since it is off topic to Fedora-list.

Craig,
I don't want an endless discussion, far from it. People have put forth
that the central issue here for why XFree86 is no longer part of Fedora
Core is the license change and some conduct of the now-disbanded core
team. If someone could just answer why the license is GPL incompatible
while the modified BSD license is not, that would be enough for me.
Thanks,
William
