i imagine the few people still working on and around the X Window System technology stack, their travails wearying enough already, waking up today and reading tech news headlines and letting out a long, ragged sigh, loud enough to startle flocks of crows from their trees.

“We have to release the latest version of the X Window System!”
What version are we up to?
“X10!”
*maniacal laughter*
Home automation engineers: *crying softly into pillow, the lamp on the nightstand automatically dims in sympathy*
