Wayland Protocols 1.44 Released With Color-Representation


Wayland Protocols 1.44 released on Sunday and with it comes one new protocol addition.

The color-representation protocol allows for the metadata to define the alpha mode, color model, and sub-sampling and quantization range for interpreting buffer contents. There is already pending code for color-representation by the KDE KWin, GNOME Mutter, and Weston compositors. With color-representation now merged into Wayland Protocols, it opens the door for compositors and apps to take off in their support for it.
