Updated response from xquartz: "No, the issue isn't that Apple should be looking for XQuartz developers. XQuartz is an open source project, and Apple contributed development to it in the past but does not much any more. I worked on it as an intern project many years ago, but there has not been anyone at Apple working on it as their primary (or even secondary) role for the past 5 years or so. I've continued to do what I can to keep the project on life support (pulling in security updates, adapting to OS X changes, etc), but I don't have the time to dedicate to the project that it needs. Also, the current architecture is not the correct solution. We should be moving to XtoQ.app which is part of libxcwm. Unfortunately, there aren't any developers working on the project right now." So basically from my understanding this is an xquartz related issue that needs to be fixed by developers but nobody has been looking into that right now due to the dedication this needs. This is barely supported anymore so if anyone has the knowledge and skills to look into that and help that would be amazing. If not I will try to look for people in my neuroimaging department that might have some time. If anyone of you has any updates on that please let me know. Thanks! Good luck to everyone!
