Does anyone have any hard information about X11 implementations for the 
Macintosh (any model)? When X11 was first announced, there was a flurry of 
messages describing how "I saw it running at so and so's but they want to 
tweak it more before releasing it". A moderately reliable source told me that 
one would be available around Thanksgiving, but that seems to have evaporated.

1) Is someone planning on shipping X11 for the Mac?
2) When?
3) Which models?
4) What is the distribution mechanism?
5) Is there someone I can communicate with (phone, mail) about technical and 
distribution issues?
