wlc is going to be abandoned? about wlc HOT 10 OPEN

well me and my friend @kozec would be willing

from wlc.

It's going to be abandoned unless somebody else wants to pick it up. I suggest checking out libweston, or helping with the Sway's wlc replacement efforts.

@Enerccio I could give contributor access, or you could fork the project (without actually using the fork button, because github search won't index it then). Latter might be better, if you want to do drastic changes, because I'm still at least keeping wlc in shape so that it doesn't introduce more breaking in sway.

@Cloudef ideally I want to improve on it

from wlc.

made an official clone of wlc then: https://github.com/Enerccio/wlc

from wlc.

I'll link to your clone.

@Enerccio Some thoughts over irc

SirCmpwn :: I'd prefer low maintenance mode over official fork
 Cloudef :: you can still keep using the Cloudef/wlc until you have your own thing
SirCmpwn :: because it's going to cause confusion
       → :: and I'm worried that the libraries are going to diverse
       → :: diverge
       → :: or create backwards incompatabilities
 Cloudef :: I could suggest changing the name
SirCmpwn :: would appreciate that, would also appreciate not making it "official"
 Cloudef :: so there won't be libwlc

Would it be ok to change the name, and make it just "fork".
I'll revert the text on wlc to say that it's going to be abadoned but link to your "unofficial" fork.

sure, gotta think about the name though

from wlc.

renamed to ewlc: https://github.com/Enerccio/ewlc
