I can appreciate that it may be short notice, but consider that Enlightenment has been in full-on development mode for 9+ months. If anyone truly had any critical features to merge (which I am not already aware of), they've had ample time to come forward during this period. Furthermore, while I may be reluctant to merge new things after the freeze, it is by no means impossible to do so. If someone comes up with something novel and interesting which has little chance of creating large bugs for me to fix, it's probable that I'll accept it. > 2. What is the timeline for the release?

While I would like to provide a concrete release-by schedule, Enlightenment development is a bit different from EFL, and I am strongly opposed to setting such a deadline given the extremely limited manpower actively working on Enlightenment. Ideally, E20 will release prior to EFL 1.16, but this is nothing more than my responding to questions of "When will E17 be released?" with "Soon". > > -- > Tom. > > On Fri, Jun 26, 2015 at 9:11 PM, Mike Blumenkrantz < > michael.blumenkra...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > With a few minor exceptions in Wayland, all target features for the E20 > > release have been met.
