From what I understand, xorg has fundamental security flaws. How will they remedy this?

They won’t. Don’t download random shit and if you’re worried, run it in Flatpak

What happens when the Linux kernel drops support for xorg? Do they intend to fork an older version of the kernel in order to keep support?

Not really possible, since X11 is only built on top of the kernel’s graphical interface (same as Wayland). Even if that wasn’t the case, the kernel doesn’t delete any code that anybody uses (that’s why 30 year old programs still run)

The first comment on the request

For the sake of all of our sanity, I’d really appreciate if FESCo could decide on this one really quickly (e.g. putting out a statement) and avoid what could be a most unpleasant flame-fest on this mailing list.

I work in big tech. 10 years ago, nobody was talking about going back to India, Pakistan, and to an extent, China. Now, people are talking about it. They’re talking about Indian stocks, Indian houses, and dreams of retiring to go back.

Most people aren’t - but the number is now non-zero.
