Celebrating 30 Years of X
|
||||
================================================================================
|
||||
The X.Org Foundation is proud to announce a special birthday: 30 years ago,
|
||||
on 19 June 1984, Bob Scheifler announced the X Window System.
|
||||
|
||||
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11#Introduction][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Over these 30 years, X has come to be the base for Unix desktops everywhere.
|
||||
With desktop environments such as GNOME, KDE, XFCE, Unity, Enlightenment,
|
||||
millions of users are using X as the underlying technology today.
|
||||
|
||||
The X developers have pushed the boundaries and moved X from a system
|
||||
originally written to run on the CPU of a VAX VS100 to one that runs the
|
||||
GUI on today's laptops with 3D rendering capabilities. Indeed, X predates
|
||||
the concept of a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) as we currently know it, and
|
||||
even the company that popularized this term in 1999, Nvidia.
|
||||
|
||||
X continues to see improvements and despite its long service record, it will
|
||||
stay with us for a while longer.
|
||||
|
||||
And in case you're wondering, X predates:
|
||||
|
||||
- Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, Microsoft Windows
|
||||
- POSIX, C89, C99, C++, Java
|
||||
- the World Wide Web
|
||||
- the GPL and the FSF
|
||||
|
||||
X was one of the first major open source software projects, years before the
|
||||
terms Free Software and Open Source Software were commonplace. Celebrate with
|
||||
us, for without X, the desktop would not be what it is today.
