Remember you mailed the "X.Org user support and discussion" mailing list and
not the developers mailing list.  But even so, the developers from the Xorg
project are working on Xorg, we're not here to perform for you just because
someone we've never heard of sent mail to a list many of us don't pay much
attention to demanding we spend our time answering questions for you so
you can write an article, instead of putting that time into actual Xorg
development work.

(Not to mention many of us have employers who require that media contacts
  go through our work press relations staff, and that we not engage in
  outside interviews without that.)
