XCONSORTIUM(7) Miscellaneous Information Manual XCONSORTIUM(7)
NAME
XConsortium - X Consortium information
SYNOPSIS
Release 6.3 of X Version 11 was brought to you by X Consortium, Inc.
DESCRIPTION
The X Consortium was an independent, not-for-profit Delaware membership corporation. It was formed in 1993 as the successor to the MIT X
Consortium. The purpose of the X Consortium was to foster the development, evolution, and maintenance of the X Window System, a comprehen-
sive set of vendor-neutral, system-architecture neutral, network-transparent windowing and user interface standards.
The X Window System was created in the mid-1980s at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. In 1988, MIT formed a member-funded consor-
tium to provide the technical and administrative leadership necessary to support further development of the X Window System. In 1992, MIT
and the membership decided it was in their best interests to move the consortium out of MIT and create an independent, stand-alone organi-
zation. All rights to the X Window System were assigned by MIT to X Consortium, Inc. on January 1, 1994. X Consortium, Inc. closed its
doors on December 31, 1996. All rights to the X Window System have been assigned to the Open Software Foundation.
The X Consortium was financially self-supporting through membership fees. There are no license fees associated with the use of X Window
System standards and code developed by the X Consortium. Membership in the X Consortium was open to any organization willing to execute a
membership agreement.
The X Consortium was a highly participative body. Members were encouraged to actively cooperate with the staff and other members in the
design and review of proposed specifications, and in the design, coding and testing of sample implementations of those specifications.
The X Consortium accomplished most of its work using electronic mail over the Internet, with individual mailing lists for working groups.
Internet electronic mail connectivity was viewed as a requirement for useful participation in X Consortium activities. Meetings were held
as necessary, often in conjunction with industry conferences and trade shows.
