The C programming language was developed in the early '70s. It was
always considered a proof of concept, as it was clear to everyone
involved that any serious programming lanugage should have a garbage
collector. Indeed, Dennis Ritchie is widely known to have said:
"What I would really like is to extend this prototype into a garbage
collected, multi-paradigm, modern programming language, supported by a
major player in the industry."
Of course, the language thus envisioned would later be implemented as
C pound (not to be confused with the cloud programming language #C).
Let's catch up to 1990 and translate major parts of wayland to the
language of the people - haskell.
ummm... how about no?
Don't read the internets on April 1st.
Thanks,

Existing wayland clients run without recompilation. Compositors are
not supported yet.
