For *nix enthusiasts (including cygwin): There's a new open-source development branch of XFree86, called Xouvert. Actually, it is an alternative to XF86. Actually, it appears to be mostly hypothetical at the moment. Appropriately, "Xouvert" is the name of the ancient Babylonian godess of open windows. I look forward to trying it out when they release something. I'm especially curious about their revision control system, Arch. We've been investigating CVS for our larger projects, but it seems inadequate for projects with many forks and concurrent developers. I guess any kind of revision control is better than our current approach of "print out the results in a graph and then misplace/overwrite the code that you used to get those results."
