This is the official announcement for Wayland 1.8.
Wayland 1.8 splits the client and server header files into core and
generated protocol. The core headers can be included as
wayland-client-core.h and wayland-server-core.h. The scanner also now
supports a --include-core-only option, which causes generated code to
use only these core headers. This makes life a bit easier for language
bindings and other libwayland users that generate their own protocol
code from newer wayland.xml files.
