I was at Sun (but not in the Windows group) during the first Windows wars, NeWS was Sun's attempt to 'start from scratch'. When Canonical jumped on the Wayland bandwagon I had hoped we could see a better outcome but too many of its developers looked up to the Win32 API. A small minority of programmers today understand *why* X11 is the way it is. I believe that contributes to them breaking things when they try to reinvent it.
