You're off by a day :) However, as much as I like the purely wm-focused plugins that edgurgle has been working on, I'm inclined to agree. Usually the way with brand new plugins is that we have to adjust them abit to be ready for a release, specially with regards to options and strings. There also aren't any translations ready, though that might not be as huge a blocker. > To be clear : as a pure "management" point of view, Swap might be added to > Compiz, but not 0.8.0. I think we could probably sneak this into 0.8.2, though. I don't see a reason why we can't add plugins that add significant features without modifying core, in a stable branch. But then it needs to be actively maintained through 0.8. I'm already seeing a shopping list for 0.8.2. - Kristian
