Subject: Emacs and Wayland
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2016 00:37:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9470C7AB-FDB8-4ED8-975B-18BD33E6B69E@gmail.com> (raw)

Fedora 25 was released earlier this week with Wayland enabled by default. There seems to have been some effort in making Emacs run on Wayland natively but nothing official as far as I can tell. So I was just wondering if there is a plan for Wayland support? (As opposed to relying on XWayland, which is meant to be an interim solution I guess).

Recently there was discussion on developing a pure GTK+-backend for Emacs. The fact that GTK+ comes with a Wayland backend makes the case for such a pure GTK+-port even stronger I think.
