It has come to our attention that people not involved with XFree86 development
are getting access to pre-release XFree86 code.  We do not want this code
distributed, under any circumstances, outside of our development circle.
We have far to much work to do trying to get the code together to support
people playing with things that they shouldn't have in the first place.

Please respect our wishes.  Do not use any XF86_xxx server except XF86_SVGA
or XF86_Mono from XFree86 1.3.  This code does exist on some FTP servers,
but that is for our use, and it is almost exclusively in read-protected
directories.  If you do stumble across it, just let it lie.

Be aware that if you are on the development team, and we find that you
have released the code, you will be asked to leave the team.  Our no-release
policy is not news to anyone; they agree to these conditions when they join
the team.

That said - just be patient.  We will be issuing a new call for beta
testers when we finish integrating the accelerated servers into the main
source tree.  That should be within a few weeks.  Please wait.
