Maintenance-Mode-Quickly
Long story short, Red Hat hopes to switch from X.Org to Wayland and
expects X.Org to go into "hard maintenance mode" after that.
Relevant to OpenBSD?
I regularly run programs on one machine connected to a display
on another machine. AFAIK, the current state of Wayland makes
that difficult. I confess to not following it closely.
Implementing something as huge as Wayland in the kernel....
mega-bloat. As a tightly coupled server process, maybe.
Sorta like X with a very different interface.
It also seems to assume a heavyweight desktop suite
to implement common X features.... Mega-bloat.
If I'm wrong, please point out sources.
Otherwise for my usage it's not nearly ready and
requires some complex porting/additional programs.
