Hi Thomas,

this guy asked about porting mvwm patches to fvwm, and I don't
know what to answer.  As you know, I've been inactive in fvwm for
years, and I even missed your fork.  Can you tell me a bit about
your project, its goals and what your plans are for the future
relation of fvwm and mvwm?

Cleaning up fvwm is definitely important work, and had I had the
time in the past, the 3.0 release would have made such an effort.
