Hi Riccardo,
The issue seems more general, not only with DND. I noted many
restarting while testing AddressManager. Again with the two docks on
the desktop.
Cheers,
Patrick

How are things with this? Ever happened again?
It did to me - I cannot have a certain way to reproduce it. I
thought it
was triggered by actions like renaming, but I was able to observe it
without. Stupid things it always takes days.
Things that I guess might trigger are:
- presence of the inspector, maybe only the content inspector and
changing/observing many files
- switching between many directories, perhaps with inspector open
- changes of files "under the hood" by other process (uncertain,
most
often, nothing happens)
The latter should affect more fswatcher, but maybe messages get
htrough? I
don't know.
As I am testing AGNoStep C5C, I noted a more unstable behaviour: It
often
happens when I move a document icon on an app icon (namely TextEdit)
on the
left Dock: it is as the two docks were conflicting about which
handles the
DND action.
On the left Dock (which belongs to GWorkspace) I have only GNUstep
app icons
(GWorkspace, TextEdit, SimpleAgenda, Terminal, GNUMail, InnerSpace
and the
Recycler) while on the right dock (GWDock) I have mostly dockapps and
only
two docked GNUstep apps: AClock and TimeMon.
As I have Dunst notification message in the autostart script, when
the issue
happens, I can see this notification shown. So I guess the autostart
is
called again, as Window Maker was started again, but all the GNUstep
apps
windows are still there: none is closed. So this is weird, because,
unless I
see the notification, I could not guess something unexpected happened.
I think this issue will be difficult to analyse because it is a
GWorkspace
and a Window Maker interaction.
Cheers,
Patrick
