I'm going to send out one big mail to -devel-announce some point in the
near future. Let's wait for that. The mail will mainly be targeted at
getting people to move their build-deps away from xlibs-dev. The reason I
haven't sent it out yet is that our RM asked me to wait until the various
transitions have calmed down. We can include information about xterm in
that mail, for those who aren't following -devel-announce.

Glad to hear it! It'll be nice to have other people actively working on it.
