[Newark] Finally! A dynamic tiler for Wayland that almost works :)

So,

With tinkering around with CARBS and such for a while, I've wondered
whether anybody else had considered making a dynamic tiling window
manager for Wayland.

Turns out several have been working on it but I've just seen this
particular one:

Fantastically it will even run on the Pi! I assume that's down to the
strides made in recent months regarding v3d support for all the openGL
subsets that Wayland based compositors need.

Most of the tools that I use in the day to day with CARBS also have
Wayland equivalents so I figure I could eventually move the entire
rigamarole to Wayland.

Anybody else using Wayland native systems, full-time?

C.
