There's also little benefit to doing so.   It will just be another tarball
in the modular release directory for distributors to choose, and there isn't
really much difference in picking that up from an x.org mirror instead of
a sourceforge.net mirror.

It might make some distributions more likely to consider packaging it, but
won't force instant widespread distribution as putting bits into the old
X.Org monolith used to.
