Stephen Chandler Paul - Adding tablet devices support to the Wayland protocol

Summary the talk:

  • A brief explanation of the parts that needed to be worked on in order to get tablet support in Weston (libinput, the wayland protocol, and weston itself)
  • The changes that were made to libinput, and the thinking behind the design choices that were made.
  • The changes we've proposed for the wayland protocol in order to allow for tablet support, and the thinking behind the design choices that were made with the protocol.
  • The changes that were made to weston along with the design choices that were made. This part's going to be a lot more brief then the last two since it's not in regards to an API or a protocol.
  • A brief summary of the work that still needs to be done
  • Questions, suggestions, etc.
