I'm not impressed with how they're approaching the development. They've been rushing cosmic development without taking time to do some things properly. They forked iced and have a huge amount of changes. Instead of keeping the history clean they squashed their changes into a 50,000 line commit. Their compositor has no automated testing last I looked at it. Hundreds of warnings during compilation.
