+1 for FreeIPA and Wayland. I made some serious progress on my home
server this weekend, and I feel like the next big step for me would be
some sort of global authentication mechanism for my devices at home.
FreeIPA sounds like an interesting (if not somewhat overkill) solution,
so I would love to see some examples of how people have been using it.

As for Wayland, I've been running Fedora betas mostly to try
Wayland/Weston. I've had some trouble with the libinput aspect,
especially with my laptop's trackpad, but the progress so far has been
promising. I've never had much luck with KDE myself, but the work their
team has done on the KDE Wayland compositor is really cool.
