    Until then, Right on! I like it a lot!

    EDIT: I hope systemd sucks in mir instead. That would serve them right.
    Logind will probably be required by both until a decent user session management alternative is available.
    It is actually the key issue for non systemd systems in my opinion, for desktop users.

      That's ok by me. As long as it doesn't become systemd-wayland.

        Well lxqt it does not have a windows manager people use lxqt with kwin, and lxde with openbox. XFCE it does have a Windows Manager but the development is to slow. Enlightment probably is already supporting wayland.

          I agree.

            Arch, etc. care about QA, but in a different way. The bleeding edge distros are the ones who actually do the QA and report bugs that get fixed upstream before the more conservative distros adopt them. As a rule of thumb, they're usually ~6-12 months apart. (More for Debian, due to its periodic feature freezes.)

            Agreed - the lack of a good alternative to logind was the main reason systemd became as controversial as it did. (There was also them assimilating udev, but it was the dependency of DEs on the logind interface that really pissed people off.)

            Personally, I'd like to know how well Wayland supports multiseat and gaming. I'd use it right now if those two are covered.
