Eazel go bye bye=out of business = shutdown = gone!!!
Got this e-mail from the Nuatilus-list@list.eazel.com (see below). I checked out the articles and there seems to be some credibility to the notion the Eazel is defunct. Also, logging into to the Eazel servers doesnt happen. And you just got the damn thing dl'ed and running. Now I have to figure out how to kill the Nautilus desktop and revert back to the standard Gnome 1.4 environ. Any Suggestions on this? "Hello. Just read this on /.: An AC writes: "Dotcomscoop.com claims that Eazel (of Nautilus fame) closed down today. A News.com column lends some credibility to this report." It isn't clear whether Eazel went down today, or will close next week, but the end seems certain. So, what's the state of Eazel? Have you closed yet, will it happen next week or never?"
It's open source. Someone will take it over..most likely Ximian or Sun..I don't think it will disappear..it may get skinnier and less bloated..but I doubt it will go away. To much was built around it. * Curtis Rey (crrey@home.com) [010512 09:11]: ->Got this e-mail from the Nuatilus-list@list.eazel.com (see below).

I hope it does get picked up. It looked promising. Curtis Rey Remember Paul's law: "You can't fall off the floor." On 2001.05.12 12:11:24 -0500 Ben Rosenberg wrote:
