On his blog, Peter Hutterer answers the perennial "is Wayland ready yet?" question by pointing out that it really is not the right question. "The protocol is stable and has been for a while. But not every compositor and/or toolkit/application speak Wayland yet, so it may not be sufficient for your use-case. So rather than asking 'Is Wayland ready yet', you should be asking: 'Can I run GNOME/KDE/Enlightenment/etc. under Wayland?' That is the right question to ask, and the answer is generally 'It depends what you expect to work flawlessly.' This also means 'people working on Wayland' is often better stated as 'people working on Wayland support in ....'. "
