You can read a short abstract here:
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/project/google/gsoc2011/yiyus/22001
The main idea is to avoid the duplication of xlib dependent code in
inferno, p9p, 9vx and drawterm and write a wsys device to use the
window manager of the host system through a file server similar to
rio(4). If the new x11 code will be a library or some sort of p9p's
devdraw(1) and if the wsys device will be an inferno/drawterm/9vx
kernel device or an external program serving 9P are open questions
yet.
Feel free to ask if you want to know more.
