      Kristian had also promised a backend for GTK but that doesnt seem to be a priority

        It's open source. If you want something - help people out

        P.S. I would expect people to start working on the GTK+ backend as soon as wayland and eagle get in sync with each other. And that is not possible without the page-flipping ioctl. So it's probably going to be after kernel 2.32 is out.

          some things are not as simple as "hello world"

          and require immense knowledge in order to be implemented

          this is something i (and million other OS users) can not do sadly

            Is it an backend which makes more use of XRender such as QT4?
