The X Window System is released by the X.Org Foundation under the MIT ("X") License. The VSW5 Test Suite is the industry best practice in testing the X Window System.
+
+All Official X.Org releases are free and available for download from [[ftp://www.x.org/pub|ftp://www.x.org/pub]] and at mirror-sites world-wide.

+"The Open Group congratulates the X.Org Foundation on making the free availability of the X Window System Test Suite (VSW5) under an open source license possible and establishing a test working group" said Andrew Josey, Director of Certification at The Open Group. "This initiative will further enhance the quality of the X Window System and we look forward to working with X.Org. As part of that cooperation we plan to contribute a number of patches to the code base."
