From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mir was canonical's own fault for trying to pull a (blatantly obvious) licensing move where Mir would have been nearly impossible to compete with in a future Ubuntu.
And that's setting aside the absolutely insane statements canonical's Mir team were making about Wayland at the time.
When you fumble something so badly that Intel stops supporting your efforts on it in protest, you messed up.
