Too few little devices have X drivers.  Most have Android drivers.  This 
guy is working on supporting Wayland on top of an Android kernel.

I infer that he's trying to ditch Andorid userland.  For example, he's 
using glibc, not Bionic libc.

He's a Jolla/Mer developer.  He did some of this stuff last summer but 
felt burned by Ubuntu waving the stuff around but implying it was their 
creation.

This seems promising.
