It has been providing the best X-Server for years but that does
not necessarily mean it's that good. The development team, I
hear, is not very welcoming of updates, fixes and suggestions.
That's the main reason the x.org team split, it's so they could
increase the integration of new features into the source tree
at a greater pace. The X server as it stands now isn't even
more feature packed than what Win98's GDI could do.

I don't think anyone really cares about the licensing issue, as
far as I can tell. People have an opinion on it but it hasn't driven
anyone
