So now it came to the advanced PR strategy commonly known as a shouting match -- supportetrs of something extremely unpopular bombard the population with meaningless statements that seem to support their ideas, and insult everyone who disagrees with them. The goal is to present unpopular idea as popular in hope to recruit supporters among the uninformed, until it will become popular.
The reality is, Wayland developers' design abilities are at the level of kindergarten. This is why they claim, it is so hard to extend or update the protocol while providing backward compatibility -- because they are all incapable of protocol design.
Their "answers" are blatantly intellectually dishonest. There is no effort -- none whatsoever -- to provide network transparency for Wayland applications, and the support they promise for X11 applications (that their system is supposed to replace) is at the same level that exists on Windows -- famous for being total crap. Clearly they want to make X11 applications unusable, so everyone will have to switch to their system, and there there will be at best Windows level of remote UI.
And just to pre-emptively answer the hordes of people parroting "But X is so horrible" and "But remote X does not work" bullshit.
Windows remote desktop is not better than remote X11 applications, and anyone who tells this, never actually seen X11 being used. What is not surprising considering that he is a Microsoft marketring contractor.
P.S. Thanks to some of you, now my karma is "Terrible", so I can only post twice a day. Congratulations with your great victory and please die in a fire.
I also ask everyone who wants to support me, or at least to counter-act this bullshit, to mod up my posts.
