I asked Jeremy about potential Wayland support for macOS awhile back and his response was that it was pointless duplication as Xquartz already achieved the same goals. Jack On Tue, Oct 15, 2019 at 4:40 AM Chris Jones wrote: > Hi, > > On 15/10/2019 9:20 am, René J. V. Bertin wrote:

I’m no expert on Wayland but I found this discussion on a Darwin port a while back: https://mastodon.technology/@bugaevc/101603518023241841 G. > Le 15 oct. 2019 à 13:31, Jack Howarth a écrit > : > >  > I asked Jeremy about potential Wayland support for macOS awhile back and > his respon
