IMHO you're to uncritically and I go over board with my pathetic
opinion. Between our different opinions there's much space for
speculations. Isn't space for speculation alone not already scary?
The first thing I heard was, that Wayland should be a replacement for X,
then a while later I heard that Wayland should replace X and the WMs for
the DEs, at same the time when at least one major DE decided to drop
window buttons, menu and tool bars and when another major DE made
wayland a hard dependency.
What I found strange was that running Jessie and cracking open synaptic
I found a bunch of lib-wayland packages and if you try to remove them,
that will rip out solitaire, your desktop and half the rest of the
install. If I'm running X, what gives?? I run multi-monitors (4) and two
nVidia cards, and from what I've read, Wayland won't play nice with that
setup. Ric
