I know this is blasphemy on this site - but I can't wait to see Mir in its full glory.
That video demonstration looked so smooth.
This anticipation feels like the late 90's again - when I would wait for Linux Forum magazine to ship from the UK with its CD packed with new software to try for the first time.

Youtube video via HTML5 and WebGL with accelerated hardware running through Ozone-Wayland:https://github.com/01org/ozone-wayland
See Thiago Vignattis comment " UI smoothness is really tricky when video casting cause the CPU is already exhausted due the video capture. So I agree that things are not smooth on this video but it is when in normal usage "

I'd have love to have seen how the windowing worked (considering that is one of the two areas that this is addressing).
I am calling it ?proof of concept? not because of the quality of the code, but because there is more work to do to fully integrate Chromium with Mir, e.g. Mir does not provide Window Management, so Chromium will excel to its fullest extend only on Unity 8 on Mir.

Now keep in mind it could be an outdated page, it hasn't been touched since May 2013...

All that work just so Canonical can do like they did made Wayland. But on the other hand thank you canonical else I would sticked maybe another year or more with that bad os, with not only a bad init-system but also really bad defaults (kernel get never removed if you install updates so at some point you have 100 installed) and no ramfs/tmpfs and so on...
