Hi all I was poking about ProjectManager in the SVN repository. I was having problems with it (it wouldn't render anything except a fuzzy bright purple screen for me) so I decided to look into it and ended up starting again with the existing code and expanding the XCB framework that was there. I've got it to the point where it seems it will map and unmap windows, but not handle window decorations or the root desktop (I'm stuck on that one at the monment). I used xcompmgr as a guide as it seems to work well enough and is pretty simple, although I still need to port some stuff over from it (especially support for transparent windows and some stuff I left out because I didn't know what it did).
I've been developing and testing it with Xephyr, xterm and xclock. Gorm seems to start up and display in it but there are these big black boxes (I'm thinking hidden or unmapped windows) that appear too. I want to post the code, but the original code was unlicenced. I assume its going to be MIT or something. I'm also unsure who wrote it. Once that is clarified, I'm happy to add the headers to the source code files, and write a quick AUTHORS and COPYING file.
