etox is dead. has been for a long time (ever since textblock made it into e17).
etox is neither maintained, fixed, nor developed. thus i guess erss is dead too.

i definitely think that's a good idea. a lot of info on get-e.org is not up to
date it seems. enlightenment.org isn't a lot better.

a lot of stuff in cvs has no active maintainer, developers not path moving
forward. if it doesn't - then it will never be "released". it will sit in cvs
forever. at some point i will weed out anything in cvs that has no active
maintainer/developer - it will simply go. we can't have so much junk floating
about with no one looking after it.
