On Tue, 2 Sep 2008 19:08:43 -0300 Wido <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> babbled: we have goals to achieve for a release - and we are working on them. along the way some features come in but the main goals for an e17 release are:
1. theme redo (so its more pleasing to more people, is documented and clean). 2. filemanager finish up fixes so its usable as a BASIC filemanager 3. first-run install wizard needs to be finished and work (does things like set up e for your user). 4. general fixes, cleanups of ui labels and text, widgets, and outstanding bugs. if these are done e17 is ready to come out. the libs underneath are almost good to go except: 1. eina - do we do that now or delay. i would like to do it now rather than delay. 2. edje + embryo vs lua - do we drop embryo before release and replace with lua or not? this can be dropped. in the meantime some people are working on other improvements in the libs, but e17 itself is the original main driver for EFL and thus when its ready to go... the libs need to definitely rev up and come out too. there *IS* a plan. the things for e17 are not a minor set of stuff though. > Hi to all! before you start blaming me, i want to ask some thing from > my point of view 8the user one) and have some feedback about this > thing from other users and developers, i have no intend to start > WWIII. > > I've been using E17 from about a year or so, i think i started in > version .24 or so.
