Phoronix has dug through the X.org source repository to see where the changes are coming from.

"The biggest software company contributing to the X server has been Red Hat, with the second largest contributor being Tungsten Graphics and they had more than three times fewer commits than Red Hat.

Novell / SuSE was in third. Combined, these software vendors had made up nearly 33% of the total commits over the past nine years."
