I have recently emerged e16 for trial (I always used KDE) and I haven't explored it too much yet, but I'm quite happy with it. I'll be looking for a pretty desktop theme (which I haven't found yet) and arrange it to my way.
Welcome to enlightenment!
However, I been reading in forums about e17, which is still (who knows until when) development, and I was thinking about if it is worth to update my e16. How stable is e17? The new stuff worth it? Any comments about this?
For a package which needs the KEYWORD '-*' it runs remarkably stable. Of course you can have bad luck while compiling the live-cvs ebuilds, but if you try again a little later everything builds fine. I update it about 2 times a week, and watch it grow since about half a year.
Be warned that most of the configuration for e17 still happens from the command-line. The GUI tools will follow, but that will take some time. I you're not afraid of using the CL, e17 will reward you with the most advanced graphical features you have ever seen from a WM, while beeing incredibly fast and lightweight a the same time!

Also, is there any links to HOWTO configure it (e16) and howto install&use those nice panels that I see on some screenshots? As i understood, some of them are from e17 libs, but work on e16, right?
Which panels are you referring to? Link to screenshot? Christoph -- echo mailto: NOSPAM !#$.'<*>'|sed 's. ..'|tr "<*> !#:2" [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [email protected] mailing list
