Hi, list,

I think two URLs should be added to the "FVWM - Links" page 
 (http://www.fvwm.org/links.php).

1) http://www.symphonyos.com/
Excerpt from 'http://www.symphonyos.com/about.html':
==============================================================================
"Symphony OS is a Desktop computer operating system based on Debian
GNU/Linux and Knoppix GNU/Linux. Rather than using the KDE or Gnome
Desktop environments as most Linux distributions do, the Symphony OS
team has created the revolutionary Mezzo Desktop environment."
==============================================================================
And from 'http://www.symphonyos.com/mezzo.html' you can learn that this
OS uses FVWM as its Window Manager. So, I think this OS have direct
relation to the FVWM project and should be added to the Links page.


2) http://enlightenment.org/
Excerpt from 'http://enlightenment.org/Main/FAQs/#6': 
==============================================================================
"Enlightenment has a long and glorious past. When Raster was going
attending University of New South Wales he began working with the newly
released Xaw-Xpm. Leveraging Xaw-Xpm, he hacked up a new version of
FVWM, which he called "FVWM-XPM".  This new and improved FVWM allowed
XPM images to be used in place of ugly Athena Widgets (FVWM started out
in 1992 based on TWM).

On Oct 30th, 1996, Raster released the first version of Enlightenment."
==============================================================================
So, this WM is a FVWM derivative and it should be added to the section
"Other Window Managers" of the Links page.

Best wishes!

P.S. I am currently not subscribed to the list, so please CC me your
answers.
P.P.S. Where I can download _compressed_ fvwm-(users|workers) mailing
list archives? On ftp://ftp.fvwm.org/pub/fvwm/list-archive/ they are
uncompressed and full of spam. I have only slow dialup, so for me size
does really matter. If you can help, please provide me with an URL. Thanks.
