Ummm... Well that phab page sure is mysterious. It does have some
stuff like the shell's modules list - but wouldn't it be better to put that
as a link on the about e-17 page? And things like "gadget design" and such
under some "enlightenment shell dev" link as well rather than in this
phab "Wiki" page? Really bad idea to put everything in a Wiki page.
Also, the apps listed there are not only rather few, fewer than I know
have existed, but other than enlightenment and terminology you can't even
navigate to any of them without "login in".
Really, the main e.org page ought to clearly show something on these
three primary aspects -- the shell, the dev libs, and the apps. Currently,
only the first two are there in any real way.
The "About" page shows a list of some apps and additional libs, yet none
of these are in the phab page you mentioned, and conversely terminology
(which is in the phab page) is not shown in the about page in the list of apps
but rather at the top as a navigation tab - could refer to a glossary of terms.
Rather a confusing, disorganized mess for something that ought to be
rather simple: Three main categories highlighted with compelling descriptions -
the gui shell (link to further details), the apps (link to further details),
and the dev libs (link to further details, docs, etc).
The other aspects (download, contact, dev, etc) need to coordinate
with those -- for example, you can 'download' exquisite and expedite but
who knows what those are - they're listed in the About page but no working
links,
and they're not in your phab wiki. Absurd.

Most of the apps are listed on our phab wiki at
https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/
and
https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/projects/python_bindings_for_efl/#projects-using-python-ef
You can see the development activity and the descriptions of apps and
modules on our git web interface at
