Wmii is the best choice, hands down.
The other WMs assume way too much. I like dwm second best.
Here's the plusses:
1) Wmii does tagging /right/. Want to have your editor, browser and
terminal in a dev
tag? Done. Want to have your editor in your debug tag as well? No

You seem to use a nice (anti aliased) font. Out of curiosity: Can you
please tell me what it is? Thanks.
Cheers,

I'm not sure if it's my phone, but that font looks like braille.

Hi Everyone,
So I started using wmii a couple months ago. It was the first time I
wasn't using GNOME and it's default stuff and I did so because a friend
recommended wmii to me. So now I want to know what you all think. Why
are dwm and wmii better than other tiling WMs? Or not? And what are
For me dwm just works. I fiddled around with config.h for
maybe an hour after first getting dwm, and since then have
basically left it alone to do its wonders. It's reliable,
quick, and simple.
Plus it's well-written C, so I learn nicely as and when I
want to, poking around to see how things

dwm is the only window manager that handles tagging properly.
wmii is not a window manager, it's an obscene object lesson in
unhinged kitchen-sink programming.

It's endlessly configurable while it's running, which is very convenient.
I prefer dwm/wmii to xmonad because I don't know

I like wmii because it (1) has dynamic tagging, views, and columns;
and (2) is configurable in any programming language (I use Ruby[1]).
I've been using wmii since 2005; occasionally

I like dwm because of the simplicity of the product itself. It's essentially
the simplest example of what I think a tiling window manager should be. I
prefer the Master / Slave idea to Wmii's columns, and dwm implements it in
it's most basic form.
Excerpts from Suraj Kurapati's message of Wed Apr 20 19:39:00 +0200 2011:
wmii is not perfect, but it does more of what I want than other WMs
I've tried (perhaps I haven't tried enough of them). I hope Kris
returns someday to continue its development; I fear it's abandoned.
I also use wmii -
