Re: any one Try out Gnome on Wayland?

You'd still need Gnome Shell to be a wayland compositor (like weston) in order to run the whole thing on wayland. For legacy apps you'd still need xwayland which is not yet merged into the upstream x server release. Toolkit improvments aren't enough. You can already test the toolkits on weston. http://worldofgnome.org/easily-try-gtk- … fedora-19/
