This paragraph:
Under the hood, the EGL stack is expected to define a vendor-specific protocol extension that lets the client side EGL stack communicate buffer details with the compositor in order to share buffers. The point of the wayland-egl.h API is to abstract that away and just let the client create an EGLSurface for a Wayland surface and start rendering. The open source stack uses the drm Wayland extension, which lets the client discover the drm device to use and authenticate and then share drm (GEM) buffers with the compositor.

The link "drm" is broken, leading to
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/egl/wayland/wayland-drm/protocol/wayland-drm.xml
instead of to
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/tree/src/egl/wayland/wayland-drm/wayland-drm.xml
