Kalyxo was a project started after the user-linux announcement to only support Gnome as a desktop. The starting point was
http://desktop.kdenews.org/strategy.html. It generated lots of interest in the start, but only little work was done and the project importance and visibility quickly diminished. Nowadays, it is very silent and dead. At some point, 2 remaining semi-active members tried to revive the project as
ekhis. Needless to say, without much success. The whole project basically amounted to some gained experience for us. Few things were accomplished though and are useful even today. Some others have found new life of their own, like
adept, which is a continuation of a former Kalyxo project called
kapture.
