Well, it does have a dsource forum 
(http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=39), but lack of exposure 
  might be part of its under-appreciation.

Also, I can't think of any other big projects that use DFL (other than 
Entice, of course) to add to its buzz. DWT 
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/dwt) has Poseidon 
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/poseidon) and rulesPlayer 
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/rulesplayer). And now Tioport 
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/tioport) is even been used to 
automatically create a DWT port. And Icequake uses DWT, too 
(http://iqk.sourceforge.net/).

But I agree that DFL is really cool. I haven't used DWT any yet (even 
though it's been in development for years, I haven't been in the mood to 
try it yet), but I have used DFL some and Entice is especially awesome!

If it were cross-platform, we might be able to get Walter is endorse it 
as the official GUI instead of DWT. ;)
