Talk Of NVIDIA Looking At Wayland Support

[bug77]

Just what I expected to hear: it's not out, so no plans to commit resources - that's the sane thing to do. Keeping an eye out for Wayland is also a bonus. The only thing that could become a problem is Wayland attitude towards blobs; they have ignored blobs so far. This can be justified, concentrate available resources to getting Wayland to 1.0 first, deal with non-essential features after you have a stable, solid product. Afaik, there is no info available about possible blob support. Seeing that nvidia takes Wayland seriously, let's hope the reciprocal is also true.

i knew they would cave in. unless the main dev of wayland gets killed, I really don't see wayland failing. its a win win for everyone other than old neckbeards who live in 1984.

Nice to hear this, but it woud be better if Nvidia woud support Nuveau driver. I hope that all applications are able to work in Wayland without X11 in long term.
