    Nothing you say proves anything except your own stupidity. But then again ... if anyone knows about what's "not so popular and interesting", it's Dweebian. Share your github profile, mate. I'm curious ...

      Definitely. Some definitely would deserve experimented programmers with much better pay. I would bet many projects will fail to meet expectations.

        A "PD"? Never heard of it. You forgot your github profile too ...

          Some of them seem ambitious to me too. But I've been pleasantly surprised before. And there's no rule that one can't continue the work after GSoC, or that others can build on that work. (Example: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pa...64-Merged-Mesa )

          ..and this news proves that wayland and rust are not so popular and not interesting.
          How did you logically get from the first part of your quote to this part?

            Citation, please.

            When original developers have no interest to develop those features.
            You don't understand open source development, do you?

              Eight projects for Blender accepted, that's a very nice turnout!

                Dweebian You haven't even released your github profile yet. Let's not pretend you know about professional software. You're hilarious.

                  When will be the release of XFCE 4.14?
                  When will be the release of Debian Buster, the next stable tree?

                    That's funny considering only a child or wannabe adult would fall for that trick. Sounds to me like you're butthurt he knows better.
