-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 . DR17 was almost released at some point, but Raster thought that releasing code that would need to be rewritten in a week wasn't right.

-A Japonese dude that work at Sun was developing a 3D WindowManager. The Screenshots are beatifull but it is written in Java and I don't know. I relly think that will take some time till this project is up to use. Its name is LookingGlass.
