(Nice work on this BTW)
Ok, let's take a naive point of view - we're all now neophytes
with no real knowledge of "e", and someone's asking you for help with
their "e" stuff.. What would you say?
If you really want anyone unfamiliar with "e" to even begin
to care about "e", then maybe you'd need to start by answering some
fundamental questions: What is "e", and why should I care about it?
Look at sourceforge, freshmeat, and others such.. There are
tens of thousands of foss projects out there - many of them quite
interesting. Why "e"?
A window manager? So what, there are tons of those already.
What else?
An app development framework? There are mature, full-featured
ones already... ones that have produced thousands of apps. How does
"e" compare to those other frameworks, and what apps has it managed
to produce? Why is its framework, or the apps it allows, 'better'
somehow?
What's the 'Big Picture' of "e", and why should others care?
Is "e" something like a "rich app development framework"? Does it
support or work well with the web?
Do you have a 'projects' page where I can see some of the
things developed with this "e"?
Why should 'we' care about "e"?
