1. Introduction

   At this time, the X.Org Foundation is not making binary
   releases; this will likely change in the future as our
   tinderbox system reaches its full potential.

   However, people are already packaging the distribution for
   release in many of the common distributions (e.g., Fedora
   Core, SuSE Linux, Debian), and you may wish to work with those
   distributors on their packaged binaries.

   In the meanwhile, we recommend building X from source and
   doing an install on top of your running X installation *after*
   having carefully backed up /usr/X11R6 to allow restoration in
   case of some unanticipated problems. See the file INSTALL.TXT
   in the root of the source distribution for build and install
   details.
