AFAIK, Xfree86 team is working now on Win32 port. I was invited to take a 
part in their project, but... Porting of _Xfree86_ to Win32 seems to me a 
crazy idea, because Xfree86 requires direct video access by design. The 
right solution is to add a support of Win32 "hardware" to original X 
consortium X server.
