Hi,

sorry, I don't think it belongs in Weston as is anymore. See the
discussion about Weston's purpose:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2014-December/018830.html

What is the use case for weston-randr nowadays? Why would you want to
cause permanent video mode changes at runtime?

If you have a viable non-desktop use case, maybe it could be considered
then.


Thanks,
pq
