You are totally free to work on whatever you want to. You don't have to use the software that the Wayland devs (and other developers that like Wayland) produces. You can use and code whatever you want.
- braincat31415 9mo agoWhat a constructive comment. Are you a Wayland developer by any chance?
- antisol 9mo agoOh good! This is great news! So you've managed to get redhat to commit to continue to package an X server, then? I'm impressed by this achievement and send my thanks for your efforts - they've been trying to drop it for a while now, it's only wayland's continuing status as unusable vapourware that stops them.
- tuna74 9mo agoYou don't have to use Red Hat's products or code if you don't want to. There are plenty of competitors that might suit your needs and desires better.
- antisol 9mo agoOh, I don't? This is news. So to be clear, you're saying that you've spoken to the management at my company and convinced them to switch away from redhat? If you could post a link to a copy of the email from the higher-ups, just so I have it in writing, that'd be rad. Thanks! :)
- tuna74 9mo agoYou accept money to work on Red Hat products, that is a choice you make. The owner/manager of the company you work at is free to decide what systems to use and then pay people to carry out her strategy/direction. You probably don't get to decide what kind of office chairs you buy either.
- antisol 9mo agoRight. So in other words you're now saying that I do have to use red hat's products, even if I don't want to, if that's what my customers want. (and just to head off your next comment, no, it's not my choice, because I happen to like food and shelter) Thanks for playing
