Shawn,

I don't think we'll know for sure until it gets here.  Best case scenario is: 
they switch some internal infrastructure but it is invisible to us. Expected 
case scenario is: we eventually have to add another package (XWayland) in order 
to run our graphics on some Linux distros. Apple did the same thing as far as 
X11 (and therefore Unicon) graphics support -- for several golden versions OSX 
bundled X11 compatibility standard (at the time that I bought my last Apple), 
then they dropped it. Worst case scenario is: we can't run our graphics any 
more on Ubuntu, unless/until someone writes our graphics facilities in a new 
"Wayland" API. That last scenario is unlikely, as a lot of programs are written 
for X.

Will any of this affect Unicon, or Icons graphics?
