Re: MIR (Ubuntu Display Server) - Should we be worried?
Hi,
While I was scrolling on Facebook, I have seen some posts about MIR.
After some search, I have found this:

So, I thought to share it :)
By the way, just in case, you will come across this link:
http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/06/27/mir-plans-in-13-10/
I think my first link will confirm there is nothing to worry about from
Lubuntu Side :)
