The time and resources spent on Mir have nothing to do with Wayland not being ready for production. It was wasted not doing other things at Canonical; who had, and still have, no obligation to make Wayland better.
(And complaining that nobody gets your article says more about you than them.)
- russianhun 9y agoOh, many people get my article, only the few who don't are most vocal on HN, which is nothing new. Probably says a lot about HN too. E.g. you don't seem to get the article, as it's about hype and lack of interest in anything more than "oh my god latest tech trend", which is as sad as your above statement. Obligation? Who talked about obligation? What obligation? You really cannot put two and two together? If Canonical didn't go the vanity route and contributed upstream to other projects instead (as responsible companies tend to do), Wayland would be a lot closer to production grade today. Mir meant no interest in Wayland. If there was no Mir, there would probably have been. So you're wrong, it is direct cause and effect. Even if you don't get it.
