With the big desktops hurtling mindlessly towards ever more unusable interfaces now is the time for a sensible and infinitely customisable UI like FVWM to shine. I understand all too well that people have lives to live but 40 minutes a day for a couple of weeks would see you finish this quite nicely. It would mean a lot to people who are intimidated by FVWM. As I say, now is the time for FVWM to shine and to capture some of those abandoning the crazy new desktops. People are out there who have an interest in FVWM but need a leg up before they can fully appreciate its technical excellence and flexibility. To those of you withholding yourselves or withdrawing from the project - think again. A lot of work has gone into this window manager and it would be a shame to let it fade into the sunset just now when so many other GUIs are driving people away.
