Last week I got to sit down on IRC with Arlo Rose, John
Sullivan and Greg Corrin from Eazel. These guys are out to change
the way you think about the Linux desktop, and they’re gaining
speed.
A new preview release of Nautilus is right around the
corner, with some neat features and surprises you might not have
expected.”

“Linux.com: Arlo: Tell me about the regular day at Eazel for
you.”

“John Sullivan: I wonder if the silence means that Arlo has no
regular days at Eazel…”

“Arlo Rose: Well, it’s usually me walking into the office, with
my heart set on finishing up a specific task I’ve wanted to get
done for weeks, and ends up with me having to help an engineer
through some design issue that I think will only take a few
minutes, but ends up taking all day. 🙂 “
