From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So... does THIS mean that this doesn't support explicit sync, right as explicit sync is about to be stable and supported in the NVIDIA 560/565 drivers? As far as I know there are currently other ways to do screen capture outside of this protocol on Wayland so its not like there are no interim solutions, why release this when it is essentially still incomplete?
