Oh nice. I occasionally mention EDE in desktop roundups on El Reg. Glad it is not forgotten.

It's based on FLTK, and although the effort to create FLTK 2.0 faltered and died a few years ago, last year there was a new point release, FLTK 1.4, the first in 13 years.

I wrote about it almost exactly a year ago:

(In researching that I discovered that apparently it's not pronounced "eff ell tee kay" but "full tick".)

Since then it's got up to 1.4.4, and they're working on FLTK 1.5. And yes it supports Wayland now.

So maybe it's time for a new release of EDE to go with it. :-)
