The title is a bit unclear. Up through Lion, Apple bundled XQuartz to provide X11 support. Going forward, they will no longer do so. Instead you'll have to download and install the XQuartz binary separately. Apple will continue to support XQuartz as an open source project. There will just no longer be an "official" Apple version.
You have been downvoted because many people on HN base their votes on whether they like the message of a comment. People who like Apple products and can identify with the values of the company will feel you're defending Apple with your comment and will upvote you for doing so. Other people who like X11 or XQuartz a lot or simply dislike Apple will feel that you're trying to defend an evil act and will downvote your comment in retribution. I'm not sure how helpful this voting pattern is for the quality of HN discussions but it's basic human nature and there's not much that can be done about it.
I've had the idea in the back of my head for a while now to build a new facade UI for HN that completely hides the surface evidence of the entire karma system, which has come to be used in an increasingly childish and reflexive manner.
> There will just no longer be an "official" Apple version.
Even that's overstating it -- there will still be an "official" Apple version, written by Apple employees and automatically installed when it's needed; it just won't be on most users' machines.
[Edit: why would someone downvote this?]
