Enlightenment E17 Alpha 3 Brings Many Changes

Posted by Michael Larabel on November 17, 2012

It was just a few days ago that Enlightenment E17 Alpha 2 was released but there's already a third alpha of this window manager expected to finally debut next month after more than one decade of development.

The Enlightenment E17 release date is set just ahead of Christmas and so far everything is on track. For making the best release possible, new alphas have been coming in rapid succession.

The E17 Alpha 3 release brings translation updates, improvements to the first-run wizard, a more complete default theme, PulseAudio mixer improvements, file manager improvements, and much more.

More details on the new release can be found on Enlightenment.org.
