Hello, As we are moving forward with a stable API for binding, one of the main "weirdness" that is still exposed is that you need to actually require two differents library to use efl. Also the only reason why we haven't merged elementary so far as been because it still depend on webkit-efl and webkit-efl depend on elementary.
I am going to address that during next efl release cycle, by moving the webkit dependency to be a module (like evas_generic_loaders and emotion_generic_loaders). Once that is done it will be technically possible to merge the both of them. This open a question, does anyone see any other reason to not merge elementary ? If there is no other problem being seen to do this, there is a few things that will be impacted : - elementary developers branch can not be merged into an efl branch automatically. Developers will have to either finish their patch before we merge or have to take care themself of doing the move from an elementary branch to an efl branch. - for the same reason, phab patch on elementary that won't have landed before the merge will also be abandonned and their respective author will have to move their patch on top of efl new merged tree. Due to the above effect, we should come with a clear timeline if and when we do that merge to allow everyone to handle that big of a change early enough to not loose time on patching the wrong piece of code. Also I think this is going to impact efl 1.18 release cycle, and maybe it should be adapted with maybe a technology preview in the middle of the release cycle just after the merge ? Stefan what is your take on such a big change ?
