We are not using SurfaceFlinger in FFOS. Our rendering engine (Gecko) acts as display server, and directly composites into the framebuffer using OpenGL ES. There is no benefit FFOS could derive from SurfaceFlinger or Wayland.

Hi,
To my understanding Firefox OS today uses the Android graphics stack
including SurfaceFlinger as its display server. Is there any plans to
implement a compositor that support the Wayland protocol or maybe rather
investigate/research the benefits of that approach, or possibly explore the
possibility to use Ubuntu's new display server MIR?

Thanks posting the question Oliver, I wondering the same after looking at the Philipp's heavily patched release[1] for Raspberry Pi.

Cheers
