Awesomewm is much better! ;-) <serious> Unfortunately no more. I still have awesome on hold on 3.4.15-1 because 3.5.x is incompatible with the no more updated awesome-extra package. And without awesome-extra, awesome is far less awesome... :-( So I wonder if I should switch to i3 which is properly maintained and seems to have all the features I need since 4.x... > Lua for configuration is overrated.
