Interesting?
Yes elementary has a limited number of widgets (at the moment). ELF is
not "elementary"
roadmap for Elementary.
http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/wiki/Elementary
Some EFL features:
Each Can be installed independently
Each library can be used by itself
FpGUI (true - has low dependancies on other libs) has no future in the
embedded market and has some design flaws (graham is happy and that all
it mattaers). lcl-fpgui is not happening?

This might be of interest to all LAZARUS developers/users. Take look at the
LiMO foundation (consortium of companies for next
generation of hand held devices)
http://www.limofoundation.org/en/what-is-the-platform.html
http://www.limofoundation.org/
The takeaway message from this is that EFL (enlightenment foundation libs) are
the main libs proposed by the foundation to
develop the next generation of hand held devices. What is disturbing is that
lasarus/fpc has no bindings for these super fast
libs.
Fast, maybe. But also primitive.
There are very few widgets available in elementary (no surprise, given the name
;) ).
It looks like it is indeed geared towards PDA/Mobiles. Lazarus would have to
develop most other widgets by itself.
What also comes as a surprise is the very long list of dependencies. Compare
with fpGUI, which only needs X11.
In each case, we'll certainly welcome header translations.
Michael.
