>Currently there are various and diverse projects using the EFL as base
Interesting article; I had no idea EFL was being used so widely.
>With the release of EFL 1.0, one can only hope that 2011 might still see an E17 release being announced.
I remember Slashdot had an April fool in 2002 IIRC, claiming that E17 had been released. At the time it was considered so far behind schedule that it looked like it might not ever actually happen.
It looks like the old joke that it E17 would be released shortly after Duke Nukem Forever turned out to be *true* :).
