Hi all, A long time ago [1], I suggested that we move weston-info out of the Weston source tree because this is a very useful tool which gives important information about any Wayland compositor, not just Weston.
The general consensus was it was a good idea, unfortunately other more important things happened, people (including me) eventually forgot about that and it never actually came to fruition… But the need remains, I think we should have a compositor agnostic tool that gives the general information about the running compositor. And we should not need to install Weston for that alone. So I took the liberty to uproot weston-info, rename it as wayland-info and put it on its own repo: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/ofourdan/wayland-info As you can see, I took great care to preserve the git history of weston-info in the process. In the meantime, Peter has already submitted patches to wayland-info (thanks Peter!) so the tip of wayland-info is different from weston-info (basically, we have diverged already). Eventually, if nobody has objections, we could move that repo to the wayland domain… Cheers, Olivier.
