Do you have more links to prove my point?

Originally posted by Honton View PostI gave two examples of GNOME developers doing upstream work on Wayland/Weston. Get it?

But hey, number of commit is such an incredible metric.
It doesn't really matter anyway, Rob is not a Gnome developer or a Wayland developer. He is an Intel developer, as he is paid by Intel.
He works on Gnome, and he works on Wayland.

Originally posted by Honton View PostOf course he is a Gnome developer, he says so him self. I suggest you go read his blog. Even if you refuse to listen to him, then think about what you are saying. Bu your logic the only Linux developers are those paid by Linux Foundation. How far will you stretch your logic to deny Gnome is doing a lot of work at wayland/weston upstream?

That's it. Im asking for you to provide links to wayland consumers matching this kind of upstream work. Sure Rob did his work for Gnome, but I didn't bring that up. And even if you can't find some one matching this work, find some one who can match Matthias Clasen's overall knowledge about Wayland, someone who read and understood wayland to the same level. Someone good enough to fix the documentation more than once.
Provide your documentation or keep quite.
I don't personally feel DE project's like GNOME, KDE etc. as a whole should be heavily involved in the direct development of the Wayland protocol anyway, since Wayland is supposed to be a neutral protocol and it would be wrong for it to be heavily influenced by the needs of just one DE, like Mir. As you have pointed out, GNOME etc. are "consumers" and the onus is on them to make their "products" work with Wayland, not the other way round.
Finally, why should I provide any documentation? Again, you are the one making ridiculous assertions so the onus is on you to support your arguments but yet again your a failing to do that, Instead you are moving the goalposts, a sign that you have lost the argument.Last edited by danielnez1; 08 August 2013, 12:26 PM.
