I am a mere user of Arch and as of now have not contributed in any way to the Arch system. Dont find myself, a hot headed fundamentalist, in the role of a mediator. But you can see your xorg-server-antidesktop into the official packages. Have a look at the wiki for AUR. It clearly says that packages start as being in AUR and then finally end up in the official repository after getting enough support. I think there are others who would also like to have a non hal/dbus xorg-servers. They will support you. But please don't fork Arch. The issue you pointed out is too minor, at least to me, to justify such a drastic action. If there aren't many supporters you AUR package will remain there. That should also be fine, after all world domination is never a goal with free software. It is just a side-effect. Regards ppk
