Bed time now, only very quickly skimmed, so... Canonical's more-or-less
the "good guys" now?
It will be completely open to use & contribute to, even for those
outside "Ubuntu world"?
Sooo confused.. must sleep... Thanks!

If that will be true, things can turn out good for Wayland as well.

So no one else concerned about this? Where do you think the
community can go from here?
Can Sailfish Alliance (or someone else) really beat Canonical to
the punch w/a Wayland based smartphone (or similar form-factor)
next yr?*
I have my worries/concerns/doubts....
*And with a Wayland implementation that's _fully_ competitive with
Mir?

Phoronix has been covering it all heavily, a recent article by them:

This is pretty big: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MirSpec
I thought Canonical were "basically" just using tweaked
Cyanogenmod + libhybris + a QML shell on top
(boring/non-innovative).
But it appears they're moving more & more towards their
own complete OS stack (much more akin to Sailfish)...
I really hope they intend to work with Wayland/Weston, &
perhaps even merge (where practical) efforts longer-term
into one truly F/OSS project.
But I have my doubts/concerns... If they do,
MeR/Nemo/Sailfish could stand to benefit a lot, &
conversely so could Canonical.
Cheers,
Nath
