Exactly my idea. There won't be any new window manager, at least not
from me, so the whole discussion might be nice from a theoretical
point of view but that's it.

I see it this way: if I had put all the hours into something
commercially viable instead of QPC there would be a Ferrari waiting
outside instead of a Mitsubishi. I don't regret doing it, it's still
fun and I'm happy to donate some of my time to the scene. But what I
certainly won't start is yet another project that would eat up my
hours by the hundreds.

And anyway, if I wanted a completely different look I would just start
changing ProWesS instead of doing the same thing again. Some think
ProWesS would be faster if written in assembler? Then feel free to do
so, the source is right there. But nobody will do so because nobody is
willing to invest that much time (or those who might be willing don't
have the knowledge which in the end results in the the same fact:
nothing done).

I'm trying to tweak the code that is already there and do the stuff
that just needs to be done. And I'm trying to involve you into the
decisions I have to make as much as possible. Unfortunately not much
feedback there so far.

Marcel
