> There never going to fully "leave" Xorg (Debian still ships token ring software FFS so the idea that they'll stop shipping X is just a weird fantasy some people have for some reason) Obviously we're talking about using it as the default display server, and to that end they are and will. X will stay around for compatibility for quite a while of course. > so in that sense they won't "go back". No, so they won't switch to some other Xorg system, they'll just keep using what they have. > Void is already working on packaging Xenocara and I doubt they'll be the last one; OpenBSD will just become the team that provides both a display server and a secure remote shell for lots of the Linux ecosystem. I'm not sure about every last esoteric Linux distro, but the big ones. To that end, they are the ones actually paying people to develop Xorg and have been for many years. I don't see why they would move to something else even if they did go back to X, which they won't.
