Uh, like you mean did they write their own X-server for example?

The outside sources are identified in the README. Here it is, edited to
be more compact:

This distribution contains:

DES software by Richard Outerbridge.
Copyright (c) 1988,1989,1990,1991,1992 by Richard Outerbridge.

X Window System, Version 11, Release 6.3.  Copyright (c) 1996 X
Consortium

Java DES software by Dave Zimmerman and Jef Poskanzer
Copyright (c) 1996 Widget Workshop, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
Copyright (C) 1996 by Jef Poskanzer <jef "at" acme.com>.  All rights
reserved.

Naturally the windows version doesn't include any X-windows source.
