Yes, that's probably true. I think Thomas is at the end of his power. The permanent attacks against him the last time weren't very cooperative at all ... >If someone comes to this list with a great new idea and convinces the >few of us that hang around that he's qualified he'll get commit >privileges and Fvwm get new capabilities. A great new idea ... there are many ideas but for these ideas we need people who are willing to show them with config examples and accept constructive reviews. We need also a good default config for new users to show what is possible with Fvwm. We started months ago with them. I created a config based on that ideas but it must be tested and need feedback from the community. >It's pretty hard to work up any ambition when Fvwm already does >everything a person wants. (It does for me.) For me too, but we need more than comments what is bad and should change ... >Hopefully we have the mechanisms in place for this project to carry >on to serve that niche of users that want total control and don't need >GUI's to write configuration files. Thomas started with his wiki for that but it should extend to get a rich pool of information around of Fvwm. Thomas -- What is the exact difference between a 'terminal', a 'shell', a 'tty' and a 'console'? A terminal is at the end of an electric wire, a shell is the home of a turtle, tty is a strange abbreviation and a console is a kind of cabinet. -- Gilles ___________________________________________________________ SMS schreiben mit WEB.DE FreeMail - einfach, schnell und kostenguenstig.
