NAME
       XStandards - X Consortium Standards

SYNOPSIS
       The  major goal of the X Consortium is to promote coopera
       tion within the computer industry in the creation of stan
       dard  software  interfaces  at  all layers in the X Window
       System environment.  The status of various standards,  and
       the  software  in  the  X11R6.1 distribution, is explained

NON STANDARDS
       The X11R6.1 distribution contains sample	 implementations,
       not  reference implementations.	Although much of the code
       is believed to be correct, the code should be  assumed  to
       be  in error wherever it conflicts with the specification.

       The only X Consortium standards are the ones listed above.
       No  other documents, include files, or software in X11R6.1
       carry special status within the X Consortium.   For  exam
       ple,  none of the following are standards: internal inter
       faces of the sample server;  the	 MIT-SHM  extension;  the
       Athena  Widget  Set; the Xmu library; the Xau library; the
       RGB database; the  fonts	 distributed  with  X11R6.1;  the
       applications  distributed  with X11R6.1; the include files
       &lt;X11/XWDFile.h&gt;	   &lt;X11/Xfuncproto.h&gt;	  &lt;X11/Xfuncs.h&gt;
       &lt;X11/Xosdefs.h&gt;	 &lt;X11/Xos.h&gt;  and  &lt;X11/Xthreads.h&gt; the
       bitmap files in &lt;X11/bitmaps&gt;

       The Multi-Buffering extension was a draft standard of  the
       X Consortium but has been superseded by DBE as a standard.


X REGISTRY
       The X Consortium maintains a registry of certain X-related
       items,  to aid in avoiding conflicts and to aid in sharing
       of such items.

       The registry is published as  part  of  the  X  Consortium
       software	 release.  The latest version is always available
       by sending a message to	xstuff@x.org.	The  message  can
       have a subject line and no body, or a single-line body and
       no subject, in either case the line looking like:
	    send docs registry
       The X Registry and the names in it are  not  X  Consortium
       standards.
