Re: Debian 13: A last hurrah for GNOME X11 session?

>GNOME on Wayland is more than ready now.
Even if I have an older NVIDIA card? Or like to use older xlib or
motif based applications? What about certain applications such as
using electronic or specific other ones like skype having less
functionality on wayland than X11? I know GNOME has been striving hard
to fix things, but for some things, I just don't see wayland as ready
yet. Now, if very recently things I listed have improved, by all means
let me know please.

There are plans to very soon remove it, I recall 47 by default doesn't ship with a desktop xsession entry. So is debian going to deliberately stick with 47 for debian 13? Because I just don't see the GNOME wayland ready yet and need to keep sticking around with X until then.
