Update to add correction on June 18

* Since the publication of this article, the X.org Foundation has been in touch to clarify that Enrico was a "relatively new contributor" to the X.org rather than a "long term" fixture – which our original piece erroneously stated – and started contributing around a year ago. It added that he has "never been a maintainer of the X.org server." The new project has since attracted a huge amount of followers. Read The Reg to see see more coverage soon.
