+The xinit program is used to start the X Window System server and a first
+client program on systems that are not using a display manager such as xdm.
+
+The xinit is not intended for naive users. Instead, site administrators should
+design user-friendly scripts that present the desired interface when starting
+up X. The startx script is one such example.
+
+All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
+Xorg mailing list:
+
+ https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
+
+The master development code repository can be found at:
+
+ https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xinit
+
+Please submit bug reports and requests to merge patches there.
