Ever heard of Wayland? Now THAT was the one that should replace X11 on all dists in the future.

But instead Canonical decided go they'r own route What they has done with MiR is to fragment the Linux community and NO ONE wins on it except Canonical :/

Because of this commercial apps will probadly only work on ubuntu distribution which already is a problem but will be worser in future because it will not even work with Wayland.

Its second generation of Google Android

And all this talk about fully opensource is plain stupid garbage! There is no chance that everything will be opensource!
