I'm very happy to run that by folks. In my searching, I felt this
was the most useful to someone who has no idea how things fit
together, but I do agree it's confusing. After reading the
discussion that was attached to that drawing, there are a lot of
people who would really like a good overall diagram of X.
Consider this a specific request for a 'X Org architectural overview diagram'.
Does anyone have a good one? Or wanna mark that one up?

The xorg wiki is the right place for this info and I don't wanna
duplicate anything. I'm completely new to X and didn't wanna start
making changes to the wiki, cause I'm gonna make mistakes. ;) So I
put all my stuff over here with the full expectation of moving it over
later. This is just the rounding stuff up stage and over here I can
easily move things around if a different organization makes more
sense. I just used a different template because with this one I
find this one easier to locate stuff.
thanks for the feedback Peter,
Matt
