I think it's safe to say that certain projects are pretty much dead. 
Just as the Mozilla phone kind of fizzled out, I think Touch is pretty 
much dead in the water. That makes Mir kind of useless, too. Which is 
good, because all flavors can benefit from Wayland. That's certainly the 
blessing we receive here.

That said, Unity itself may live on but so many people don't like it, I 
can't imagine it would really go anywhere. Eventually we'll have LXQt 
working happily thanks to Lubuntu's help. Upstream's been running it 
with Kwin instead of Openbox, so there's certainly a mid-weight desktop 
environment possible. Maybe someone should start the Ubuntu Qt flavor? 
:)
