I don't know why Gnome is in the subject.  I haven't seen any mention

Perhaps because of headlines like this:

"Big News! GNOME to Drop X11 for a Wayland-only Future"
on https://news.itsfoss.com/gnome-wayland-xorg/

But in the article itself all that's clear up to this point (October
10, 2023) is that nothing had been decided on the future of X11 within
the GNOME universe.

Redhat though has written on
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/rhel-10-plans-wayland-and-xorg-server
last November "to remove Xorg server and other X servers (except
Xwayland) from RHEL 10 and the following releases."

And a little later, same piece:
" While we recognize the energy behind some distributions and Fedora
  spins moving towards a similar future, this decision is limited to
  RHEL 10 - we recognize other Linux distributions have different
  needs and decision structures, and additionally we are not aware of
  plans for similar efforts in Fedora, nor are we involved in similar
  efforts besides sharing our knowledge."

It's carefully worded tho' - see the "energy behind .." part in the
first line, and later on ... ;)

best -
