Hello Nick,

Figured I'd reply to the original e-mail and let you know how the status of my current Wayland Plasma build, and it has gone well. If you get the itch, you can definitely get to a plasma/wayland desktop.

This took me a course of about a week from some trial and error (one I was wanting a pure wayland build, but that is still impossible as parts of kf5 and plasma still require some xorglibs and xcb, even though I tried to hack it out of there).

Attaching my results, so far.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
