It's interesting to see how Canonical's announcement of Mir seemed to spur new interest around Wayland and an acceleration of its development, generating a new wave of announcements (i.e.: Gnome deciding to go "all wayland" by 3.12, etc).
That sure seems to have been a kick in the pants. More specifically, it spurred interest in using the Android HAL in the underpinnings of a Weston compositor.
Having gotten that kick in the pants, I hope they can all just get along and resolve resource and schedule issues between two projects that look functionally identical now.
