Schaller: Fedora Workstation 40 – what are we working on

Christian Schaller writes
about the desktop-oriented work aimed at the upcoming Fedora 40
release.

Another major feature landing in Fedora Workstation 40 that Jonas
Ådahl and Ray Strode has spent a lot of effort on is finalizing the
remote desktop support for GNOME on Wayland. So there has been
support for remote connections for already logged in sessions
already, but with these updates you can do the login remotely too
and thus the session do not need to be started already on the
remote machine. This work will also enable 3rd party solutions to
do remote logins on Wayland systems, so while I am not at liberty
to mention names, be on the lookout for more 3rd party Wayland
remoting software becoming available this year.
