if this succeeds, WMR headsets might be made Linux compatible and this will turn out to have been on-topic (www.change.org)

Petition: make WMR open source

Microsoft has stopped supporting WMR.

Please sign this petition to?open-source the software, so others can maintain it and prevent the perfectly good VR headsets becoming e-waste!

FYI there's an open-source project "Monado" which attempts to reverse-engineer inside-out tracked headsets. At the moment their WMR support looks promising, headset has 6-DoF tracking and just recently controller tracking has been figured out.

Said progress will trickle down to the Oculus Rift S as well

That is awesome! Keeping the Reverb G2 alive amd enabling the move to Linux at the same time.
