Thu Nov 15 01:00:28 UTC 2018
This protocol specifies a set of interfaces used to control the alpha
compositing and blending of surface contents, based on the Chromium
Wayland protocol of the same name [1].

---
Changes in v3:
- Rename "blending" event to "blending_equation"
- Add enum specifier to "blending_equation" event and "set_blending"
request.
- Fix typos
Changes in v2:
- Add additional "fromsource" blending equation used by [3]
- Allow the server to advertise which blending equations it supports
- Added a protocol error for using an unsupported equation
- Added a protocol error for using an invalid alpha value
- Added clarification about wl_surface.set_opaque_region
- Added clarification about per-pixel alpha values

+ <description summary="Protocol for more advanced compositing and blending">
+ This protocol specifies a set of interfaces used to control the alpha
+ compositing and blending of surface contents.
+
+ Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and backward
+ incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes may be added
+ together with the corresponding interface version bump. Backward
+ incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in the protocol
+ and interface names and resetting the interface version. Once the protocol
+ is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the version number in the
+ protocol and interface names are removed and the interface version number is
+ reset.
