Hi all,
I've been lurking at this mailing list for some month, and I'm surprised
no one have suggested to launch a Suckless Store: a unique marketplace
to find Suckless Apps, where after a registration Suckless Users can do
Suckless Reviews and like the corresponding FaceBook pages.
Also, I suggest all Suckless Apps to report usage statistics regularly
to a server hosted in the Suckless Cloud Hosting ServiceⓇ.
My 2 suckless cents,

That is a good idea, but I think we should probably be bolder.

/usr/bin/<blink><u><b>DWM</b></u></blink>
Of course we'd have to patch <blink><u><b>ST</b></u></blink> to
parse XHTML, but frankly it's embarassing we haven't done that yet.
Quoth FRIGN:
Well, I don't think this emphasizes the SUCKLESS® corporate-identity as much as
it should.
I propose we include underscores, too:
/usr/bin/_ST_
/usr/bin/_SSELP_
/usr/bin/_SURF_
/usr/bin/_DWM_

Thanks for bringing up that very important issue, I was annoyed too.
Here is something else that bugs me a lot:
PLEASE SPELL DWM HOW IT OUGHT BE DONE: IN CAPITALS.
I suggest other suckless projects to do so either. And I would go so far
to capitalize the executables, too. Though, that might be too radical.
I'd like to hear how people feel about it.
Look at that:
/usr/bin/ST
/usr/bin/SSELP
/usr/bin/SURF
/usr/bin/DWM
Don't they look much more appealing to you. Admit it! It's only habit if
you are not immediately euphoric about this idea!
Think positive, be creative, innovate, top post!

Can you please include the whole message you are replying to in your
answers guys? It's very difficult to follow this thread if I have to
go back and read the previous messages and it is a very important
thread for the suckless group. Making good software is nice but don't
forget to make good communications too.
By the way, can the person in charge of
https://www.facebook.com/pages/dwm/103482239693985 be a bit more
active? I keep telling people to try dwm (which needs to be rewritten
in ruby) but once they see the facebook page they say it looks dead
and bad.

This is great news. Now that suckless has reached the future we will see
a bright horizont of pleasure and commercial support.
Most definitely!
However, we need to build up your corporate identity. I suggest we make
suckless a registered trademark and sue everyone who adopts our brand
without permission.
Cheers
