I finally got around to updating my #xfwl4 port for #crux and testing it out to see how things are coming along and it gave me a full xfce desktop right off the bat.

Didn’t expect that.

Things are a little off yet, but it is functioning. Impressive, most impressive.

Oh wow! That is really interesting to hear.
#xfwl4 is not even in public beta yet.

Thanks for living on the cutting edge.

#Xfce #Wayland

@kevinbowen I’ve been loosely following along with it as it interests me greatly. The last time I tried it out it only barely just drew the screen itself and a sample window. It’s come a _long_ way!

@jloc0

Well, a few months ago, we made an executive decision to actually pay one of our core devs to focus on building #Wayland support into #Xfce. Brian has done a great deal of work to make this happen over the past 3ish months.

Don't quote me on this; but, we _might_ enter public beta for #xfwl4 later this year.
I don't expect it to be ready for our 4.22 release. But, good progress is being made.

@kevinbowen @jloc0 holy wow exciting!!!
