Yes. The requirement is that Weston must support that hardware.

No, DRM is not a must. DRM and DRI2 are one of the multiple possible ways for 
Weston to access the hardware, but not the only one.

No, I don't know any other ones. The point is that a GPU manufacturer may 
choose to support Wayland and Weston through other means.

Yes. That's the whole point of running Weston: showing something graphical.

EGL is required, but OpenGL ES isn't. Applications can use shared memory for 
raster pixels, but that's not efficient. Applications should use OpenGL ES 2 if 
they can.
