x11-wm/ede-1.0.3 ebuild request

Equinox Desktop Environment (shortly EDE) is small desktop environment, builted
to be simple and fast. It is based on modified FLTK library (called extended
FLTK or just eFLTK).

Comparing to other desktop environments, EDE is much faster and smaller in
memory space (EDE's window manager use less memory than xterm).

I second that. Ede is nice and quick especially for old hardware. I use it on an
old machine I set up for my mother (amd-k6-2 450mhz, 192mb ram). Quick and snappy.
