in fact.. you have to do almost no work... get openembedded up and working.
openmoko uses it 0 for am arm based phone. mamona uses it for a fully open
build for the nokia n8xx (arm based).. etc. etc.

as such - all you need is an xserver.. and e will work. there is no porting to
do that is arm-related - the code has been fixed and cleaned long ago so it
"just works"... once you compile it. your biggest problem is a cross-compile
environment for building software - you need to solve this anyway - and once
you do (openembedded is a good option here), things just work. openembedded
already has builds for enlightenment in it - as far as illume goes - it's a
module for e17 to make e have a ui layout/setup that is much more
"phone/pda/handheld device" friendly ui.

as vincent mentioned... openglES is an interesting idea - to date i have not
had any time to really look at it. i know leonardo started playing with it...
but didn't have any success. one day i'll get to it! :) but as such most of the
work is done in the gl engine - it just needs some changes to adapt to GLES.
