Yep, we should be getting a few alphas from dec in the next few weeks. I'm
going to be taking one to work on the XFree86 port.

Any hints/suggestions that you have to make the port easier would be helpful.
Also, if anyone here is interested in beta testing the results or helping
in the effort, please stay tuned. I'll be announcing a formal request as
soon as we get the boxes in.
