Originally posted by Sidicas View PostMir hasn't been doing a very good job at showing where Wayland is broken, but I think a key point that people are missing is that Mir might be able to work with proprietary Android blob drivers which would be critical to getting Mir to run on other smartphones other than the Ubuntu phone. Providing people the option to run Mir on their other devices, even if the manufacturer doesn't support it, sounds pretty interesting to me.
Does Wayland ever plan to get proprietary Android binary blob drivers working with their display servers? Especially considering that Android's linux kernel has a patchset that still hasn't been merged into mainline linux... I doubt it.
As such, the people complaining are not missing much, and you're spreading BS.

For now, I won't use Ubuntu and I support Wayland, but if it succeeds with MIR I'll use it. To be clear I want MIR and upstart to die, but I can change my opinion in the future.

Originally posted by erendorn View PostFrom what I understand, the amount of work still required to make Mir or Wayland compatible with Android drivers is... exactly the same. That's because they have the same basic architecture and are both EGL based. As said many time, Wayland has been ported to Android last year as a proof of concept, to show that even if they didn't aimed for it, it would still be easy.

Wayland is a working system right now, complete with a shell and ports of all the major toolkits. Go to Youtube and see the numerous videos showing it on action on various devices if you wish more evidence.
