Hi,
I know that most of you doesn't really use WindowMaker or think it's obsolete. Nevertheless I use it daily at my main desktop and I'm very happy with it. Sadly there were no release since 4 years! :(
At the moment there are some very active developers which forked the actual last CVS snapshot of WindowMaker and doing a lot of work with new features and bugfixes.
The mailinglist of WindowMaker is very active with those developers and it looks promising. I have used there GIT snapshot since a few days and it looks very good.
I would like to replace our official package with a regular updated GIT snapshot package to give the new developers as much feedback as possible and to give our WindowMaker users a more fresh WindowMaker than the 4 years old one.
Any objections in doing this?
Cheers, Daniel
as long as you test the git snapshots first in order to provide some kind of stability check I see no problems with it. I may even give it a try just for fun.

I will test those snapshots on my workstation in a daily usage scenario before I will release it.
