I second that, I  see Ion as a killer feature for Linux now, since when I work 
on *any* other OS, window managment is so much work (I haven't tried Expose 
on MacOSX though).

So the next "ion-devel" version will be released as ion3 for gentoo? Even if 
the next devel-version comes out in some weeks?

Very true, but also thanks Tom for the great support for gentoo users and also 
to the guy, who created the Dock module (sorry, can't remember your name, 
thanks anyway).
