Wayland's Weston 9.0 Reaches Alpha

[om26er]

Congratulations on reaching version 9.0 to Weston. At the same time, shame that after almost a decade, we can't call any one Wayland protocol implementation as useful enough for a full-fledged desktop environment.

Hmm?....

The improved testing support comes way by re-engineering the testing harness and supporting DRM and OpenGL tests among other cases relevant to this Wayland compositor.

Wait, there really is a typo:

Simor Ser is again serving as release manager.

Phoronix: Wayland's Weston 9.0 Reaches Alpha

Weston 9.0 release preparations are getting underway. At least compared to the original Weston 9.0 release plans, this Wayland compositor is running about a month behind those plans but in any case the release is now making its way to reality...
