Wayland and Weston can be run with software rendering since v1.1:

Thanks a lot "Santa" ;D :D :P ;).
Now we're still missing a compositor though, such as Weston for example:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/wayland#Requirements
;)
Could you possibly also add Weston to the repo and upgrade gtk3.tcz to the latest version, since a current version of GTK+ 3 is required for Wayland:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayland_(display_server_protocol)#Toolkit_support
?
Juanito:
wayland becomes a dep of libEGL, which means libEGL extension grows in size (not such a big deal) and that X users get +/- 100kb of wayland extension they can't use.
The gtk3 extension is +/- current at 3.22.0 and it will compile against wayland. Compiling mutter with wayland support fails for me.
I suspect there will be a problem with libinput (required by wayland), the latest versions of this use the udev hwdb, which is not present in tinycore.

Not in the x86 repo, which is at 3.14:

Juanito:
weston will run in a window under X without Xwayland and the weston terminal accepts keyboard and mouse input so perhaps the hwdb is not so vital after all.

Here's also a guide for Weston:
