: I've put together a little "state of the union"  summary. With all the flurry of

Ok, so this is not strictly speaking e app wise but I thought ferite
deserved a mention.

ferite
	A light weight portable scripting language with a design for
	sitting in other applications. It is pretty much stable with
	various features and cleanups being made in cvs. The current
	stable version (0.99.6) is usable. There will be bindings
	for the various e libraries once their API is more conrete,
	as well as the ability to script the behavior of e itself as
	well as write epplets and other applications within it. It has
	a sane object model and is very easy to extend natively.

	It currently works great on Linux, Darwin/Mac OS X, Solaris,
	*BSD.

	There is documentation covering all the various different aspects
	of ferite availiable on the website.

	The e libraries are going to form the base of the user interface
	module [to be started soon].

Just thought I would throw my two pence in.

Regards,

Chris
