I do not remember adding any new feature in feature freeze without a very good reason why it has to be in the release. I see none here. Fvwm existed ten years without window specific styles. What is the reason why we can not live without the patch for some more months? > > Try to see the other persons viewpoint and then ask yourself, > > can I give in on this a little for the sake of the team. > > This is the only argument I see to do not apply the patch. > So now if the patch is not applied what I've to do with it? I have held back dozens of patches for the sake of the feature freeze and it's no fun for me either. I refuse to abondon my notion of software quality for the sake of making the developers happy. But of course I can't stop you from doing what I think is wrong. Take fvwm and have fun with it. I give up. Bye Dominik ^_^ ^_^ -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
