If all you > can offer are bikesheds then like with PulseAudio expect me to not care. While both Wayland and PulseAudio are of course useless pieces of software, I did not object Wayland being enabled by default as long as I can turn it off. I don't see how this level of granularity is bikeshed. There are large parts of functionality that are completely useless for various groups of people (graphics support for servers, CUPS support for users without a printer, etc.) and thus were traditionally made optional. Pulling Wayland unconditionally goes against the way we do things (and did for years) in FreeBSD Ports Collection. ./danfe
