More Enlightenment DR17

I’ve said it before, i’ll say it again… Enlightenment DR17 is the BEST Window Manager for X environments.

Portable, FAST, Attractive, and Usable.

It’s really good. Get it.

Can I ever go back to the “normal” way of doing things?

Okay, so here we are, almost a year down the road and i’m still building a fresh copy of enlightenment DR17 about once a week. Sure, they have somewhat stabilized builds now, but I just can’t help myself! The changelog appears in my Google homepage everyday and I see updates. Updates i’ll probably never notice or use, but never the less, i’m updating again.

I’m wondering if i’ll be able to go back to the “stable” build once DR17 is released… I have a strange feeling i’ll still be hitting the changelogs and running the CVS versions. It’s all too easy these days. After a year i’ve managed to script every part of the process… it’s totally sad.

I am a ChangeLog whore…

Another day goes by, more patches submitted to my favorite open source projects… It seems like I now spend most of my time just waiting for my patches to appear in the ChangeLog for the project so that I can code another patch on the one that I just submitted.

Is this wrong? Is it strange? Do I really want to help out with what I believe is a great project, or am I just waiting for my 10 seconds of fame before another devs bumps me off of my beloved ChangeLog?

I suspect that i’m not the only one that loves the satisfying feeling of submitting a patch and having it accepted into what you consider to be an excellent piece of software.

Back to cvs.sf.net to watch for more ChangeLogs… I just submitted a handful of patches.

The best window manager for X on the planet. Packed with graphical wonders and lots of speed. e16 is the current stable release and is recommended for most people. e17 is currently in CVS but has lots of next generation features. (If you have a development machine, load up e17 and try it, you won’t be disappointed)
