Your opinion is noted. My opinion is that we ought to be providing a good

suitable as such a basis, so the expectation is there. I don't think adding
Wayland support alone will answer that.

Paul, I do believe specifics matter, and I'm not seeing much of that in this discussion :-(

No one has yet provided any idea what this reference UI would try to achieve other than it 'being a basis for real products'. This is far too vague. Is it a tablet style UI with app launcher, and status bar, similar to Sato? Or is it a collection of mutually exclusive fullscreen apps that somehow showcase common embedded use cases? Please help me understand this.

Then there's the question of who's going to do the heavy lifting.
Are we writing, testing and maintaining our own, and if so, who has time for it? Or is there some off-the-shelf thing that would fit, and that has miraculously escaped our attention until now?
