The last thing to set as competition is a display manager, a much complex project that takes time to mature.
Virtually nobody outside Canonical are interested to contribute to the Mir project because it is considered as a waste of time and another attempt get control via Clause Licensing Agreement. It will be a matter of time Mir will either be yet another abandonware or converted into Wayland compositor.
A reminder is without Wayland developers doing the heavy lifting, Mir would not exist.
