I do fullheartedly and always agree! In WMLive, i tried to integrate the
Debian/Ubuntu menu facilities to some degree with WMaker, and i think
that i have somewhat attained my goal to have a more or less usable
default menu, which is always up to date with the actually installed
aplication base. But it is still far from perfect!

Since the default screen resolution is 1024x768 there is not really much
space for more dock apps, unfortunately. But there are lots of dock apps
included which are just a click away.

To tell the truth, i haven't worked any further on the WMLive setup
procedure, as i have receieved almost no (real) feedback, with your's
the most remarkable one, BTW. Although everybody seems to have liked the
screenshots, these are of the least interest in this context.

I would have hoped that people would check out, test and enhance the
script framework which produces the WMLive iso image, but no such thing
seems to have happened so far. I'm not sure if anybody even bothered
downloading the tar ball containing the scripts.

Most probably the script tar ball is a bit outdated by now, and i should
better put up a newer revision. The torrent doesn't work anymore, so
don't bother - after seeding it for a week or so without any download
happening i just stopped doing that.

Best regards
Paul
