It is intended as a simpler replacement for X.<\/p>\n<p>Wayland and Weston 1.3 has been released a few hours ago. See what&#8217;s new in this release:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More pixel formats for wl_shm (Tomeu Vizoso). We can now create RGB565 (and many more) shm surfaces and a compositor can indicate which ones it supports.<\/li>\n<li>Doc work (Peter Hutterer, Bryce Harrington, Aaron Faanes). Much work on the doc build system from Peter and general wording and grammer improvements all around.<\/li>\n<li>Multi resource support (Rob Bradford). Rob added support for dealing with lsits of resources which the weston side multi-resource fix builds on.<\/li>\n<li>Support for language bindings (Jason Ekstrand). After a long time and many detours into fixing other parts of Wayland and Weston, Jason finally landed the language binding support. This feature lets you bind a higher level language to libwayland-client\/server by providing custom dispatch functions.<\/li>\n<li>Release requests for wl_pointer, wl_keyboard and wl_touch (Rob Bradford). We don&#8217;t have a way for a client to deregister its interest in receiving input events, we just drop them on the client side when the client destroys the proxy. With the release requests, we now have a way to stop the server from sending them in the first place.<\/li>\n<li>Install the wayland.xml protocol defintion (Jason Ekstrand). We now install the core Wayland XML protocol definition in a public location. Language bindings can parse this to generate code or bind dynamically. This also introduces a well known protocol directory where other projects can install protocol files.<\/li>\n<li>Very few bug fixes in this release. There was only a couple of actual bug fixes this time around, which again is a sign that core wayland is settling down.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>See <a href=\"http:\/\/lists.freedesktop.org\/archives\/wayland-devel\/2013-October\/011419.html\" title=\"Wayland &#038; Weston 1.3 announcement.\">official announcement.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Download source tarball: <a href=\"http:\/\/wayland.freedesktop.org\/releases\/weston-1.3.0.tar.xz\">weston-1.3.0.tar.xz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Check out Wayland download page: <a href=\"http:\/\/wayland.freedesktop.org\/releases\/\" title=\"Wayland download page\">wayland.freedesktop.org\/releases\/<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wayland is a protocol that specifies the communication between the display server (called Wayland compositor) and its clients.
