Description:

MAS will provide a complete mechanism for media support, for all pluri-modal
media, for all platforms, for all operating systems, for all window systems.
MAS supports the desktop and, transparently, the network. In particular, MAS
will provide complete support for the X Window System, across the network.
MAS is an open system: the complete core will remain under the original MIT
("X") license, equally supporting open and proprietary use and development.
MAS provides mechanisms for structured extension, and will be supported by
dedicated testing and certification processes.
