The answer is as with many opensource software, when its ready. FVWM has very slow development (compared to other more main stream projects) but its still slowly moving forward. If you are intersted in what is needed to be done check out the files docs/TODO and docs/todo-2.6 in the CVS tree. The second is a summary of the bugs/testing that plans to be done before the release of 2.6. If your wanting 2.6 in the near future don't hold your breath, but it will eventally get released. jaimos
