Firstly, I show comments from Prof. Ida, head of YY Research
Project.

Repeat the question from David:
> is there a version that is *NOT* run atop X?

We opened ONLY YYonX.

We think our primary targets are the evaluation of server-client model
of YY and the implementation of the feature of dynamic window.

However, we planned to start the implementation of yy-client on
Symbolics Genera.
