<div class="moz-cite-prefix">> All that to say, wlroots is
probably the easiest way forward, considering it replicates a lot

<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Great to hear that you would be open
for that direction! Would you as well be fine with having Adlo's
changes as a huge MR for xfwm4 sooner or later (assuming the x11
part will continue to work smoothly)</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Asking so, since I think it would be
beneficial for Adlo and us to share the same long-term plans. If
the changes have no hope for beeing merged into the current xfwm4
one day, I suppose it would make sense for Adlo to rename his
project to something else than 'xfwm4', in order to dont confuse
both projects.<br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">> I ended up with two repos because
I’m not sure if I want this to be an independent project or an
official part of Xfce.<br>
</div>
<p>Assuming your project will reach a state were it will be good for
daily usage (no matter if it wil be called xfway, xfwm4 or
something else), I suppose it would make sense to have it as an
official part of Xfce sooner or later (hopefully with you as a
maintainer). Besides beeing "official", like that the project
could profit from translation support (Transifex) and various
other services.</p>

ofourdan favours the libmutter route. The advantage is that
it would be a familiar ecosystem, as there is already a good
relationship between the xfce and GNOME communities.
However, this would mean that xfce4-panel and xfdesktop
would have to be integrated into the compositor and they
would no longer be separate components.<br>

<div>Well, I favour whatever works eventually.</div>

<div>If I were to do it myself, I would take the libmutter
route, because I know mutter's code base quite well (being
part of my paid job), but reality is I am not actively
working on a port of xfce to Wayland (spending all my
-working- time on Wayland related things already).</div>
