Does upstream Wayland work on any platform except for Linux?

Does this display server have any form of colour management for, you know, the stuff it's displaying?

Wayland is taking off like the Spruce Moose...

Feel free to continue using X11 of course, no one's forcing anybody to switch. That said:

> Does upstream Wayland work on any platform except for Linux?

Yes, FreeBSD. Patches welcome to make it work on other BSDs.

No more than X11 right now, ie. none. But it's in the works.

I was under the impression Wayland on FreeBSD required a lot of patching on their end, but this has been merged upstream? If so that's pretty good news.

Also good news re colour management. The last I heard about this was Drew DeVault (and I'm paraphrasing) calling it "precious horseshit".

There is work on HDR colors, but I haven’t followed up on it.
