Ubuntu starts developing their own display server

[anandrkris]

I'm not very familiar with the ins and outs of window managers and display servers, so I don't feel I have much to contribute to the actual discussion. However, I have heard several mentions of a lot being wrong with X, and I'm curious to see what some of those problems are. Can anyone recommend a good article detailing them?
