> Whatever you think about Ubuntu's decision to make their own X server, it is childish to not include working patches for purely political reasons. Absolutely not. Projects need to take a strong stance on what to include or not because every piece of code in there needs to be maintained. |

In theory maybe.
In actual reality, from the 15+ years I follow Linux/OSS, projects are all to happy to NOT maintain code, let it rot, do tons of incompatible changes in major releases, or even start from scratch whenever they feel like.
