A new release of Raspberry Pi OS

Description:
The Raspberry Pi project has announced a new version of Raspberry Pi OS. It 
includes a number of
significant changes, the most notable of which is that the Raspberry
Pi Desktop now uses Wayland by default for all Pi models using the labwc 
compositor: For most of this year, we have been working on porting labwc to 
the
Raspberry Pi Desktop. This has very much been a collaborative process
with the developers of both labwc and wlroots: both have helped us
immensely with their support as we contribute features and
optimisations needed for our desktop. This release also features Linux 
6.6.51, improved touchscreen support, a new
screen configuration tool called raindrop , and more. See the release
notes for a full list of changes.
