I will talk about the experimental work I've been doing to securely sandbox graphical applications in a Wayland based desktop. I will also talk about the next steps and how this work relates to the GNOME Safety project and systemd.

Last year Lars Wirzenius presented a keynote on "Re-thinking system and distro development"[1]. A team of engineers at Codethink have now put together a concrete realisation of these concepts, combined with real life experience of existing embedded and distro build systems. The Baserock embedded build system is now ready for real world use. We will explain the design of Baserock and demonstrate it in action.
