The component 'wayland' exist in Jogl and NEWT,
see features of 2.4.0:

Thank you Peter for your introduction.

As I assume your utilization of JogAmp w/ Wayland is of
commercial nature.

Hence I like to mention that
beside contributing code, testing, etc.
it may also be possible to contact maintainer directly
and ask whether they offer commercial support.

Commercial support may allow them to prioritize work
on certain subjects or even to work and support JogAmp
in general.

See <https://jogamp.org/wiki/index.php/Maintainer_and_Contacts>

It is generally a great idea for companies w/ enough
financial resources who use JogAmp to consider
sharing some of their financial resources.
This is true not only for JogAmp of course.

However, this is not a necessary requirement for companies
to participate - but very welcome, sure.

Cheers, Sven

PS-1: Nope, there are also others who might like to receive funding.
PS-2: I hope my 'reminder' of this sort of things is not too annoying :)
