<p>Kerem Söke has <a href="https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/introducing-polo-a-mate-wayland-compositor/91698">announced</a> the <a href="https://github.com/KeremSoke/polo/releases/tag/v1.0.0">1.0 release</a> of <a href="https://github.com/KeremSoke/polo#polo">Polo</a>, a Wayland compositor for the <a href="https://mate-desktop.org/">MATE Desktop Environment</a>:</p> <blockquote class="bq"> <p>The idea is to keep MATE behaving as closely as possible to how it does on X11, rather than changing the desktop to fit a different compositor. [...]</p> <p>Window management, metacity, workspaces, tiling, XWayland, clipboard and clipman support, multiple monitors, display scaling, hotplugging, screenshots, screen sharing, and session management are all working.</p> <p>I've also added desktop effects: fade, zoom, zap, spin, squeemize, magic lamp, desktop cube, expo, and wobbly windows.</p> </blockquote> <p>Söke is looking for people to test Polo, particularly on multi-monitor setups, and report back with problems.</p> <p></p>
