Hi all,
we are proud to announce the first Tizen Generic Image with pure Wayland
support.
For i586:

For x86_64

Pure Wayland means:
No X11 library is used to build the Image, and so no X11 server.
To easily test the image, I recommended you to use bmaptool.

#wget
http://download.tizen.org/snapshots/tizen/generic/generic-wayland-ia32/latest/images/generic-wayland-mbr-i586/tizen_20140218.16_generic-wayland-mbr-i586-sda.bmap
#wget
http://download.tizen.org/snapshots/tizen/generic/generic-wayland-ia32/latest/images/generic-wayland-mbr-i586/tizen_20140218.16_generic-wayland-mbr-i586-sda.raw.bz2
#sudo bmaptool copy
tizen_20140218.16_generic-wayland-mbr-i586-sda.raw.bz2 /dev/sd${X}
With bmaptool, booting Tizen:Generic on an UBS key should be fast and easy.

All Tizen packages are not ported to pure Wayland yet:
If you are interested in porting applications to pure Wayland this wiki
page should be helpful:

Do not hesitate to participate to our pure Wayland portage revision.

For now, the image does not include the groups:
- Generic Bluetooth
- Generic Desktop Applications
- Generic Multimedia
- Generic Webkit
But lot of packages from those groups, can be installed with zypper into
the Wayland image.

Some packages or group of packages can't be easily ported into a pure
Wayland profile, because they are deeply linked to X11.
e.g.:
livebox-service is a library coded with X11.
So livebox-service and packages depending on it, can't be integrated
into pure Wayland without code development.
