@strider@mast.linuxgamecast.com just wanted to say I read all of this and it is great to see a different perspective. For me wayland doesn't work simply because the DEs I use don't support it. But now I see why those traditional DEs might not work on a port just yet.
Can't help, but wonder if Mir would've been better. (Not the current version of Mir, but the original idea.)
