[dwm] plan for dwm

2008-12-12 Thread Anselm R Garbe
Hi,

here is the plan:

slock-1.1 will be released soon containing Ali's patch with some minor
modifications.

dwm-5.4 will also be released soon containing the transition patch
with the proposed x property based status reporting, and Neale's spawn
patch again, and possibly some other minor patches ;)

After that 5.5 could contain a more advanced approach for multihead
support (though I think I need to investigate further and experiment
more into this direction, before agreeing on the final approach). It
should also contain a cleaned up usage of the HEIGHT/WIDTH macros
besides the reduction of the ugly 2 * c-bw occurrences throughout
the code (I plan to move these border deductions to resize).

Then there will be something else soon as well...

Kind regards,
--Anselm

I look forward to all the above mentioned changes, as well as this
mystery item :)

 Just adding my support.
 I have described my views on the multihead issue, but any kind of real
support will be really welcome. Dwm is still the best wm for me from all
the choices..
 Keep up the good work :)
