-The
story is a bit more complicated than that
. They
almost put DR17 to public usage once
but Raster thought that to release
code that should
be rewriten
in a week or so
wasn't the
right way (some people think that he, as [Mandrake] are too perfectionist, don't know if is spelled this way). Well..
. You can see some results of his
decision in the DR17 [Enlightenment | http://www.enlightenment.org/] page. I suggest watching the movies, as static pictures don't show the potential of this desktop.
+That's the short version of the
story, anyway

decision in the DR17 [Enlightenment | http://www.enlightenment.org/] page. I suggest watching the movies, as static pictures don't show the potential of this desktop.
