From the «Still waiting for 1.0 release» department: Title: Enlightenment E19 released with full Wayland support Author: zafiro17@pipedot.org Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2014 10:24:52 -0400 Link: http://pipedot.org/story/2014-09-17/enlightenment-e19-released-with-full-wayland-support The Enlightenment team announced this week[1] that the 19th version of their popular-but not popular enough- desktop environment has been released. Enlightenment DR 0.19 brings a number of useful improvements, refinements, or fixes, including a new profile for tiling workspace windows, better video previews, the return of the E16-style live pager, a new compositor API, non-recursive make files for building the system, and improvements to the file manager, system action menus, better performance on multiple monitors, support for high DPI monitors, and better rendering of shaped (non-rectangular) windows. It also has full support for Wayland[2] including its own, rewritten Wayland compositor.The Enlightenment project has always marched to the beat of a different drum. So their disclaimer: "Enlightenment developers cannot be responsible for any successes which occur during testing of E19" seems like they're still having a lot of fun.If you're interested in seeing what E19 is capable of, Bodhi has a good intro to Enlightenment E17[3] on their site, but this Youtube video of E17[4] is also a good place to start.
