wayland-wall: EOL?

[mathstuf]

The nd-wayland plugin requires wayland-wall. The official wayland-wall/wayland-wall repository seems to be gone and only forks are left (none of which have official source releases). Are there potential replacements to use instead?

Yeah, Wayland Wall wasn’t getting any traction and lost against wlroots’ layer-shell, and I didn’t have enough energy to keep working on Wayland Wall just for myself.

I was originally planning on re-using the code with a libweston plugin shipped with eventd and removing nd backends by using Weston as a compatibility layer, but I never got around to doing that. (And it’s a somewhat silly idea, honestly, but fun to imagine.)

Were you using that backend or is that just curiosity?

I was just back in my eventd packaging and wanted to check up on the status of the nd-wayland plugin that's behind a flag.
