I have also been wondering about the sources for the X servers.  In
fact, I'm a bit worried about them since I read the following message
from Bernd Ernesti (received 27 Dec 1995):

I interpreted this message as Bernd's way of saying he was dropping
out of the NetBSD-Amiga community.  I'm surprised nobody else
commented on the implications this has for X development, so maybe my
impression is wrong.  Did Bernd release his X server sources?  If yes,
where are they?  If not, we're in trouble unless I've misinterpreted
Bernd's message.
