I think sooner or later we (the *BSD projects) will have to break with some established concepts. And one of them should be the never ending following of the Linux crowd.

In other words, we need to focus on our strengths and follow our own path. We should stop following projects like Xorg that are committed to the Linux crowd needs. If the Xorg project wants to pursuit Linux needs so be it, they are free to do so and we should just focus on pursuing our needs.

Soon or later the Xorg will be so intertwined with the Linux kernel that we'll be crafting Linux stuff to our kernel just to be able to run X. Else we'll be doomed to always be a couple of steps behind the curve struggling to keep up.

Differentiate not initiate.

I know that speaking is easy and I know that resource are scarce but honestly things are going to get better.
