I wonder if it would be possible to add to X a third variant for
local usage: use shared video memory to communicate between the
client and the server.
What would be the difference between this and Wayland?
The lack of server fonts and other 20-year-old X11 insanity that you
need to implement just to claim compatibility.
Uh? Remember the first part of my email: if this is really an issue, why
not just create X version 12 which would keep every useful features of
the X version 11 server but remove all the obsolete features?
I can't speak for the developers but my guess is that they wanted to make
Wayland rather than X version 12.
Dumping X just because it has some obsolete features looks to me as
"jeter le bébé avec l’eau du bain" (dropping the baby with the bath's
water).
X11 is not going away.
