> ...what goal does Redhat have in "forcing wayland on users"?

The same goal any group of savvy corporate employees has when their marquee project has proved to be far more difficult, taken way longer, and required far more resources than anticipated to get within artillery distance of its originally-stated goal?

I've personally seen this sort of thing play out several times during my tenure in the corporate environment.

I honestly dont know what that means, I've never worked in a big company/corporation. Try and disown it? How does that fit with xlibres anti-corporate control stance? I guess it they push wayland then drop it, we're left with X11 ignored and a non-financially supported alternative?

I guess I just don't get how the third E in EEE plays out in an open source environment.
