Who and how many users do you anticipate will use this software?
People who want an alternative window manager for XFCE Wayland or another wayland desktop if you include WF-Shell
If there are no upstream releases but the inclusion policy is otherwise met, please provide a link to the source repository (i.e. GitHub)
Despite there being a release, it hasn't been updated recently, thus my personal build is directly from the github sources: https://github.com/WayfireWM/wayfire
additionally,i have done the same with it's friends: wf-shell, gtk-layer-shell, which is intended to be added with budgie 10 wayland, and wf-config.
