After more than a year in development, the development cycle of the Enlightenment 0.22.0 desktop environment and window manager is now over, and the final release is available to download.

As expected for a new stable series, Enlightenment 0.22 is a major release bringing great improvements, new features, and countless bug fixes. And we'll start with the support for the next-generation Wayland display server, which was greatly improved in this release, adding support for relative pointer motion protocols, pointer constraints, and xdg-shell v6.

On top of those great Wayland improvements, Enlightenment 0.22.0 further improves the new Gadget infrastructure to be more robust, as well as to provide a more intuitive and simpler EFL-based API for application developers who want to integrate support into their apps. At the moment, all available gadgets and their functionality were ported to the new infrastructure.
