And the "future", well, lot of companies are going to say "Cloud first" ;) is the future so the next thing-of-the-day will replace the today-thing-of-the-day to add what's required then and we're busy replacing things with the newest shiny technology because someone has to re-invent the wheel another time. Personally I don't see much problems rebuilding some ports if I really want Wayland, but as long as some apps run on some RasPi's and embedded devices without a display using plain X11 is the way and Wayland adds just overhead. Sure, that's my usage way and maybe 99% of all others have different opions. --- Sent from my iP..., nah, sent from my coffee machine
