This is a thankless job and you are far from the first person to feel burnt out. (I'm guessing.) For my purposes, Fvwm was feature complete after the iconboxes, left menus and window minimizing animation made their appearance. I hope that we'll always have enough interested users to at least keep what's currently working up to date. Thanks for all your efforts. -- Dan Espen
