XFree86 Release Plans

The XFree86 Project is currently working on two development streams. One is the stable 3.3.x series of releases and the other is the next major release: 4.0.


XFree86 3.3.x

XFree86 3.3.3.1 was released in January 1999. We don't have plans for any further releases in the 3.3.x stream at this stage.


XFree86 4.0

Our next major release will be 4.0. We don't know when this will be available, and at this point we can't even make a reasonable guess, so please don't ask us that question. We also don't have any beta versions of 4.0 available yet, so please don't ask about that either. We still have lot of work to do on it before it will be ready. The list below is some of what we have planned for the 4.0 release. This feature list may change as development progresses. We're only showing it here to give people an idea of what we're aiming for with 4.0.
