The results are not a big surprise, but nevertheless it is great to see the continued interest in Wayland and the ongoing work by many different parties in ensuring that Wayland will eventually be able to dominate the Linux desktop. To summarize, Pavlo found Weston to be "good," GNOME is "perfect," KDE is "bad," and Enlightenment is "good." He also created a video from his testing. Have you done any testing? What's your experience?

Good to see the KDE defenders are bringing back the same bogus line of blaming people for *gasp* using KDE 4 when it first came out. It's not *KDE's* fault it's *your's* for actually using it!
