I've never seen someone talk about xorg/wayland that was this educated when it comes to xorg codebase.

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.

I just want a Haskell or Lisp/Scheme extensible Wayland wm/compositor... I can't migrate from xmonad because of that.
There are wlroots bindings for Common Lisp. I've been considering a stumpwm rewrite using them, but it's probably too big a project for me to take on in my copious free time.
Isn't X11 already on mantainance mode?
