I'm sorry, but this is wrong on almost all counts.  The default X
server that is installed by the base for 5.4 is indeed xorg, but
both XFree and xorg are being actively maintained.  A great deal of
work goes into keeping both X servers working on the active source
branches.

As for the licensing meta-fiasco, see the FAQ or use Google to find
out more; this has been hashed and re-hashed and re-re-hashed here,
and in other venues, many times.
