-<sect1>X Server and Extension Updates
+<sect1>IPv6 support
+<p>
+XFree86 4.4 supports IPv6, based on the code contributed by Sun
+Microsystems to X.Org. See 
+<url name="X.org's document" url="http://www.x.org/IPV6_Specific_Changes.html"> for a detailled list of the changes. 
 
+<sect2>Protocol names and aliases. 
 <p>
 <itemize>
-<item> Support for the RandR extension has been partially integrated
-	into the XFree86 server, providing support for resizing the root
-	window at run-time.
+<item>tcp is an alias for both IPv6 and IPv4 transports.
+<item>inet specifies IPv4 only. 
+<item>inet6 specifies IPv6 only.
+</itemize>
+<p>
+You can force the X server to only listen to IPv4 connections with 
+the <tt>X -nolisten inet6 </tt> command.
+Or you can force a IPv6 connection by setting <bf>DISPLAY</bf> to 
+<tt>inet6/host:0</tt>.
 
-<item> The Mesa version used for OpenGL&reg; 1.3 and DRI 
-	driver support has been updated to 4.0.4.
+<sect2>XDM
+<p>
+The IPv6 XDMCP code is not enabled by default on platforms that don't 
+support binding a IPv6 socket to a IPv4 address. 
+<p>
+The XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 authentification scheme does not support IPv6
+addresses. A new release of the protocol, XDM-AUTHORIZATION-2 has been
+designed, but is not implemented yet. 
+Note that  by default XFree86 builds do not enable the XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1
+code. 
+
+
+<sect1>X Server and Extension Updates
+
+<p>
+<itemize>
 
-<item> The XFree86 server's hot keys (including those for switching
-	modes and virtual terminals) can now be configured via XKB.
-	Previously they were hard coded.  An X server configuration
-	option has been added to allow the VT switching hot keys to be
-	disabled.
+<item>The Mesa version used for OpenGL&reg; 1.3 and DRI driver support
+	has been updated to 5.0.2.
 
 </itemize>
 
 <sect1>Client and Library Updates
 
 <p>
-<itemize>
-<item> An Xcursor library providing support for alpha blended (ARGB)
-	and animated cursors.  Two Xcursor themes are provided (redglass
-	and whiteglass), as well as the default "core" theme (the traditional
-	cursors).
+<sect2>Xterm
+<p>
+
+The user-visible changes to xterm since XFree86 4.3 are:
 
-<item> Xterm updated to patch level 173, including the following bugfixes:
+	Bug Fixes:
 	<itemize>
-	<item> Fix two infinite loops (special cases of mouse hilite tracking,
-		DECUDK parsing).
-	<item> Make repainting of the 256-color example work properly.
-	<item> Modify parser tables to improve detection of malformed
-		control sequences, making xterm behave more like a real
-		DEC terminal.
-	<item> Fix a problem with the blinking cursor which occasionally caused
-		xterm to pause until a key was pressed.
-	<item> Fix improper parsing of multiple items in the ttyModes resource.
+	<item>Make signalInhibit resource work, i.e., disable the menu
+		entries that would send signals to, or exit xterm.
+
+	<item>Make cursor definition in tek4014 emulation work as originally
+		implemented.
+
+	<item>Modify translations for scrollbar so that one can use
+		shifted pageup, wheel mouse, etc., while the mouse
+		pointer is over the scrollbar.
+
+	<item>Correct initialization of G1 character set mapping.
 
 	</itemize>
-	and the following improvements:
+
+	New Features:
 	<itemize>
-	<item> Modify xterm to invoke luit.
-	<item> Add simple session management client capabilities.
-	<item> Add a modifyCursorKeys resource to control how the shift- and
-		similar modifiers are used to make a cursor escape sequence.
-	<item> Check if the printerCommand resource string is empty,
-		and use this to allow the user to disable printer function.
-	<item> Sort the options list which is displayed in help- and
-		syntax-messages at runtime to simplify maintenance.
+	<item>Modify the predictable version of the generated logfile
+		name to append the process-id rather than a random value.
+
+	<item>Modify scroll-back and scroll-forw actions to accept an
+		adjustment value, e.g.,
+
+		<tscreen><verb>
+scroll-back(1, page-2)
+		</verb></tscreen>
+
+		to scroll back by 2 lines less than a page.
+		
+	<item>Add visualBellDelay resource to modify the length of
+		time used for visual bell, for very slow displays or
+		very fast computers.
+
 	</itemize>
 
-</itemize>
+	Improved Locale Support:
+	<itemize>
+	<item>modify uxterm script to strip modifiers such as "@euro" from the
+		locale setting before adding ".UTF-8".
+
+	<item>Add logic to wide-character support which attempts to
+		load fonts specified by utf8Fonts subresources at startup.
+		The subresources have the same names as the fonts which
+		they replace, e.g., font, font1, etc., so that the
+		ISO-10646-1 fonts can be specified in the XTerm
+		app-defaults file.
+
+	<item>Improved performance with chinput application.
+
+	</itemize>
+
+	Improved Font Handling:
+	<itemize>
+	<item>Document in xterm's manpage how to use XFree86 ":unscaled"
+		keyword to suppress scaling of bold fonts.
+
+	<item>Improved logic for deriving bold fontname from normal
+		fontname.
+
+	<item>Make double-width characters work with -u8 option.
+
+	<item>Updated table of Unicode line-drawing characters.
+
+	<item>Several fixes for rendering using Xft (option -fa):
+		<itemize>
+		<item>Make height of TrueType fonts match ascent+descent.
+
+		<item>Translate Unicode values (from UTF-8 output to
+			xterm) for line-drawing to xterm's internal
+			code, etc., since TrueType fonts generally do
+			not have either set of line-drawing glyphs.
+			xterm can draw these directly.
+
+		<item>Pass 16-bit values rather than 8-bit values to
+			xtermXftDrawString() to allow for wide-characters.
+
+		<item>Use built-in line-drawing characters for Xft fonts.
+
+		<item>Implement underlining.
+		</itemize>
+
+	<item>Implement boldMode for wide-characters.
+
+	<item>Modified to work with CJK double-width (bi-width/monospace)
+		fonts.
+
+	</itemize>
+
+	Workarounds for Special Applications:
+	<itemize>
+	<item>Add option -k8 and resource allowC1Printable to allow
+		users of non-VTxxx character sets such as KOI-8 to treat
+		the C1 control area (character codes 128-159) as printable
+		rather than control characters.
+
+	<item>Add configure option --enable-broken-st and resource
+		brokenStringTerm to allow user to revert one part of
+		the parsing table corrections.
+
+	<item>Add configure option --enable-broken-osc and resource
+		brokenLinuxOSC to accommodate scripts which do not
+		distinguish between running in the Linux console and
+		running in X.  Linux console recognizes malformed control
+		strings which start with an OSC, but are fixed-length,
+		with no terminator.
+
+	<item>Add configure option --enable-pty-handshake to allow
+		one to compile-in support for the pty handshaking logic,
+		and resource ptyHandshake to enable or disable it.  This
+		feature is normally enabled.
+
+	</itemize>
+
+	Modified Resources:
+	<itemize>
+	<item>Change color4 to "dodger blue", since this provides
+		better contrast.
+
+	<item>Remove color resources from XTerm.ad, leaving them only
+		in XTerm-col.ad
+
+	<item>Modify UXTerm.ad resource file to include "XTerm-color"
+		rather than "XTerm", in case the latter file contains
+		no color resource definitions.
+
+	<item>Changed class of veryBoldColors to VeryBoldColors, since
+		ColorMode is associated with boolean resources.
+
+	<item>Changed classes of colorBDMode and similar resources
+		that override colors when a video attribute is set to
+		ColorAttrMode, to make them distinct from ColorMode.
+		This avoids an unexpected rendering of reverse video,
+		for example.
+
+	</itemize>
+
+	Modified terminfo/termcap entries:
+	<itemize>
+	<item>Add indp and rin to terminfo entry.
+
+	<item>Add le to termcap xterm-basic entry.  Though missing
+		from older termcaps for xterm, some applications check
+		for it.
+
+	<item>Correct AF/AB strings in termcap for xterm-256color and
+		xterm-88color entries.
+
+	</itemize>
