Not having a defacto compositor was a major blunder and resulted in an enormous delay to the project, reputational damage, and numerous challenges for app developers.
- chongli 1y agoWhat I don’t get is why they pushed the compositor onto WM developers in the first place. Compositing seems like way too low level of a task for a window manager to be concerned with.
- hollerith 1y agoDo you mean default compositor?
- c-hendricks 1y agoI think they meant like a reference implementation, wlroots came a decade into Wayland
- charcircuit 1y agoI mean they should have made Weston production grade and extensible so that others can integrate with it instead of remaking their own compositors.
