Enlightenment desktop is a low on resources desktop environment without sacrificing on visuals. NetBSD support for this BSD-licensed desktop has been left a few years behind. The aim of this project is to port the newest version of the desktop to pkgsrc and commit upstream portability fixes when necessary to ease future versions updates for NetBSD.

Enlightenment seems like a natural fit for NetBSD, so I’m glad they dedicated a GSoC project to getting the existing, outdated port up to snuff. The project is not complete as there’s a few issues to work out before it can be packaged for easy installation, but this is great progress already.
