In what could be a wonderful holiday for the Linux desktop, it sees appreciate the Wayland color regulatement protocol might finassociate be seal to merging after four years in talkion.
Going all the way back to January 2020 has been the color regulatement protocol proposal for permiting Wayland clients to understand the color properties of outputs and to advise the compositor about the color properties of their satisfyed on surfaces.
There have been labor-in-upgrade carry outations of the Wayland color regulatement aid for KDE KWin, GNOME Mutter, and Wayland’s Weston. There is also tentative code for Mesa drivers and toolkits appreciate GTK and Qt. The Weston code in fact was united three months ago already.
The Wayland color regulatement protocol labor has been a extfinished time coming as one can see by scrolling thraw the Wayland-Protocols unite seek.
But as pointed out by a Phoronix reader this week, it sees appreciate it could soon potentiassociate be ready… Prominent Wayland enhugeer Pekka Paalane this past week finassociate gave his “ACK” (acunderstandledgment) on the behalf of the Weston compositor aid for it. This pursues Pekka noting two days ago that there are no more discdisthink about unite seeks aachievest this for the first staging rehire.
So going off the tardyst unite seek activity, there’s some pdisorrowfulmirefulnt selectimism that the staging-level aid for Wayland color regulatement might soon be ready… Let’s hope for some pleasant holiday cheer.
