Tell me again how awesome xmonad works on arm.

You guys should just use scrotwm ;-)

Then there is no need to learn another language and you can continue on

You can't really compare scrotwm to xmonad. For starters xmonad is
actually a high level library to write window managers, if you know
Haskell then xmonad is more or less window manager heaven.
For example I use none of the default tiling algorithms, I use much more useful algorithms like the wmii-like StackTile or Grid + Magnifier. This
is just one of the many things that are not possible in scrotwm.
I think scrotwm is a fine wm, certainly comparable to dwm or wmii, but
certainly not as powerful and convenient as xmonad.
