the idea here is to make it easy for x-based wms to keep working like they always have!

That's interesting, but I really would rather write something stripped down with X as the base, though. This might be a good intermediary step, though.

I mean unless you're going to commit to maintaining xlibre or something, wayback seems like the future for x-based desktops.

> [wayback] is intended to eventually replace the classic X.Org server, thus reducing maintenance burden of X11 applications, but a lot of work needs to be done first.

		As I said, I'd rather write something from scratch when the time comes that Xorg becomes a challenge.

Wayback is really the only good step in the X11 space I've seen. They could use your help.

It also has the benefit that if it gets enough traction, then you can displace the backend off of Wayland and go directly to hardware.

Killing Wayland would just be a bonus...
