I agree with your point, but if we say for example : 2 contributions per desktop (i'm not even talking about only window managers ...), you'll get at least 4 mail clients and then the debate is closed ... I'm just saying that there should be at least one for each desktop, and if you want something else, just subscribe to the club, you'll get it ;-)) But i think it is not fair : if you need a smaller client, it is certainly because you don't have money for upgrading your computer, then paying for the club i maybe too expensive ?? Not a criticism, just arguemnts, i hope they are 'fair'. Stef Linux 2.4.19-16mdk #1 Fri Sep 20 18:15:05 CEST 2002 4:00pm up 13 days, 3:52, 3 users, load average: 1.08, 1.16, 1.21
