Hawaii Desktop Stable Released, Powered By Qt 5.2 & Wayland 137
An anonymous reader writes "The Maui OS Project has made their first stable release of the Hawaii Desktop. Hawaii is still catching up with GNOME, Xfce, and KDE in terms of features, but it's written from scratch atop next-generation open-source technologies. In particular, Hawaii 0.2.0 is powered by the brand new Qt 5.2 tool-kit and runs natively on Wayland's Weston 1.3 compositor. Hawaii 0.2.0 carries all standard Linux desktop features but more advanced desktop functionality is planned while focusing around a Wayland design and eventually their own Green Island Compositor."

I'll check it out when Hawaii reaches 0.5.0, and it better have the theme song play when I log in.

Sadly, web monkeys really do believe this even if the parent is joking (and one really, really hopes they are joking).
