Description (last modified by )
We should be able to plug into wayland and provide remote access for it.
Reading this freerdp implementation, it doesn't look too hard.
The main difficulty may be in glueing the C api with our (mostly) python server code.
What makes this now more interesting than before is the availability of sub-surfaces - which would allow us to get YUV data for window's sub-regions (like an embedded video player in a browser), without effort.

Recent discussion on wayland-devel with links:
- Remote display with 3D acceleration using Wayland/Weston: Therefore no support for hardware accelerated OpenGL gets advertised to clients, and clients fall back to software GL.. The hardest part in adding the support to the RDP-backend is implementing the buffer content access efficiently
- Remote display with 3D acceleration using Wayland/Weston: but Waltham does no good if you are already going to use VNC protocol or RDP or any other existing protocol.
- waltham: Waltham IPC Library : Waltham is a network IPC library designed to resemble Wayland both protocol and protocol-API wise. - probably not useful for us.
