I would like to encourage more public testing here, especially since
the alternative is a lot of complaints at F24 release we could have
seen and handled in advance. So I'm +1 for this article. It should
include:
* Screenshots showing how to change the session to Wayland
* Pointer to tutorials Jiří mentions on how to debug and report issues
* Reminder about how to switch back in the event of a disaster :-)
This gets a +1 from me as well for the same reasons mentioned above.
Also, it definitely can't hurt to have a pointer article on the
Community Blog referring to the Magazine when the draft is published - I
definitely think this is something of interest to the contributor community.
