Talk Abstract: 

The Enlightenment project recently announced the official of its 1.0 libraries that have been in development for 10 years. But what are these libraries? Should they be used by third party? If so, why? Let's attach meaning behind those "e" libraries, clarify the reason they were created and how our experience could collaborate more with other desktops and FreeDesktop.org.

This talk will enlighten the audience about the project and the upcoming release of the release 17 of our core application: e17 window manager, its current state and roadmap.
