He has been committing stuff, but he dropped as X maintainer (about N months
ago) and he has two jobs and forcing people to take all that kind sacrifice
isn't fair. 

I'm not against his work, and I'm not even biased X.Org but we still need
someone willing to put his/her name (and reputation) on the port. Did I mention
(again) that someone offered to do this with XFree86 ?? ;-)
