This year was the fourth year in a row that a bunch of display driver and compositor developers met for the Display Next Hackfest, to discuss, present, and tackle issues related to displays, GPUs, and compositors. Thanks to Collabora (Robert Mader and Mark Fillion specifically) for continuing this tradition! (Check out the 2025 edition) This time we met in Nice, France, after Embedded Recipes and right next to the PipeWire and libcamera hackfests. I took the opportunity to have a chat with the PipeWire developers about Flatpak, Portals, and the direction we would like to take in regard to video and audio access. Arun Raghavan has a nice summary if you’re interested.
