     DESCRIPTION
          The Open Group's X Project Team was created as the successor
          to the X Consortium, Inc., after the X Consortium was merged
          into The Open Group. The X.Org Group (hereinafter called
          "X.Org") was created as the successor to The X Project Team
          after the The Open Group ceased operating The X Project
          Team.  The purpose of X.Org is to foster development,
          evolution, and maintenance of the X Window System.  X.Org
          operates under the corporate umbrella of The Open Group.

          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 X Window System was created in the mid-1980s at the
          Massachusetts Institute of Technology.  In 1988, MIT formed
          a member-funded consortium 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 organization. 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
          Group, for the benefit of the members of X.Org.
