34 Hi.
35
36 As stated before I don't mind taking (some of the) e17 stuff - i have
37 efl and enlightenment in my dev overlay and been using it for several
38 weeks now.
39 The question is .. who wants the e16 stuff / how would maintainership
40 work for x11-wm/enlightenment which is both e16 and e17 ?
41
42 Regards
