yup, Ozone-Wayland enables a bunch of Chromium based targets including
the Chromium Browser.
I have it daily running on my testing machines and the state is quite
good, with most of expected functionalities in place. In fact yesterday
I've added video decoding acceleration support (through libva) to it, so
on this aspect Chromium on Linux is more advanced on Wayland than on X11 :)
You're welcome to join #ozone-wayland at freenode to chat with
developers and other users.
