I don't know that it does - the author has, as far as I can tell, three small commits in Wayland:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/commits/mas...

He also maintains wlroots, which is the base for basically every non-gnome(and KDE?) Wayland compositor/WM.

Ah, thanks! That makes more sense and that explains the "we".

Not anymore: https://drewdevault.com/2020/10/23/Im-handing-wlroots-and-sw...

I'm 99% certain that KDE has it's own full compositor implementation for Wayland.

He also wrote "the book" on the subject: https://wayland-book.com/
