1 Wayland is intended as a simpler replacement for X,
2 easier to develop and maintain.
3 GNOME and KDE are expected to be ported to it.
5 Wayland is a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients
6 as well as a C library implementation of that protocol.
7 The compositor can be a standalone display server running on
8 Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input devices, an X
9 application, or a wayland client itself.
10 The clients can be traditional applications, X servers
11 (rootless or fullscreen) or other display servers.
