> nobody wins from Wayland

Clearly its developers win, or they wouldn't be developing it. ;-) It looks like a neat project and I am happy to see it move forward.

The project could do with better defenders than Cyberax though. He doesn't know what he's talking about and his debating strategy appears to consist mostly of goalpost-shifting.

Possibly the people who are really knowledgeable about X11 and Wayland and the state and roadmaps of the respective projects have more important things to do with their time than to engage into pointless back-and-forth on random web sites. It's not as if Serge was a much better debater than Cyberax, either.

True enough! I'm not saying that choosing to do actual development rather than comment wars isn't a totally sensible decision :)

I don't shift goalposts intentionally. I just have a crap memory for these conversations and don't check past posts often enough. :)
