First, the state of some features will be presented that are already available for several months in the X server, but not yet widely used in applications. Then some ongoing and future evolutions will be shown: on the short term, the new EXA acceleration framework and the new modular- ized build system. The last part will focus on a longer term project: the new Xgl server architecture, based on the OpenGL technology for both 2D and 3D acceleration.
