Please consider enabling `package-review-policy` on Emacs 31, and help reviewing package updates.
This will help to catch supply chain attacks on the Emacs package archive like this one:

Had been waiting for emacs wayland compositor, and it came live.
rassumfrassum, Futur, canvas API, Pale, EWM... what's next?

All the #emacs canvas, pale, etc. demos were getting hard to share around, so I just linked them all on this webpage.
For #Emacs users: I am proposing a "beginners" theme* for Emacs, that would automatically enable features that wouldn't be enabled by default. It might come with a checkbox on the splash screen! The idea is to have a OOTB replacement for (basic) starter kits.
You can review the list of options that the theme would enable in this thread: https://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2026-02/msg00395.html. I am interested in more ideas.
(* IYDK: Emacs "themes" don't just change the color-scheme, but as seen here can set options.)

I have implemented a new version of the Emacs canvas patch. Refreshing avoids redrawing or even checking the entire buffer. Only the single glyph where the canvas is attached as display property is redrawn.
I welcome help with testing or porting to other platforms than Cairo/Pgtk or X. @divyaranjan ported his Pale library to the new version of the canvas API, with good results.

I finished wiring @minad 's Canvas API to Pale. And now we can render 1080p 60FPS video inside an #Emacs buffer without having to do tiling and other such nasty hacks. Enjoy this view of the universe inside your favorite operating system:

Can't wait for this patch to get merged into Emacs!
