In the same vein... I tried out Awesome WM 18 months ago and am hooked on to it. This WM is standard in Arch, fluxbox etc. It started as a tiling manager and now has some nice workspace features. Those who use window decorations and title menu per app will find this a little odd as by default there is no decoration.
I installed it on Ubuntu. This is a highly configurable WM with the complete menu system and keyboard/ mouse shortcuts programmed in Lua. One has to launch services and applets explicitly. Strict systray implementations only work from Ubuntu. So some things like calender widget, BT etc do not work. Not for the fainthearted but does not need a nerd to use it either. I use it with minimal services and the desktop comes up in under 5 seconds from the login manager. Standard unity takes well over 45 seconds.
