FVWM: Happy birthday, fvwm!
Congratulations! I first used fvwm on 1994, when I started studying computer sciences in IUT of Paris (France): as I discoved Linux, I discovered fvwm, witch was my window manager for 4 years, I'm currently using mostly Window Maker. Thank you for accomplished work. And also thank you for future improvements! /Winslow __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

FVWM: Happy Birthday fvwm!
I got my first computer in 1995 (an old 386Dx40) and immediately installed slackware linux on it via lots lots of floppy disks as it had no cdrom. However it was too slow to run X properly so I soon upgraded to a 486DX33 which I had for many years. I tried a lot of window managers on that old 486 and although a couple came close, none were as fast nor as flexible as fvwm. I quickly discovered that the excellent documentation allowed a complete computer illiterate such as I to customise his desktop any way he wants. Over the years I have tried as many other window managers as I could, just to compare, but I never stray from fvwm for long. I flirted with fvwm95 for awhile, then stuck with fvwm-2.0.43b for over a year, until I started using the cvs versions. Nowadays I try to keep my installation as up to date as I can, and I still haven't been able to try all the possible combinations of fvwm-themes! I think they're approaching infinity? Anyway, I guess I'm truly addicted to fvwm as any of the regulars on EFNET's #linuxhelp and #redhat can attest to, as I spend much time energy extolling the virtues of fvwm to newbies and old time linux users alike. CONGRATULATIONS to all the tireless and dedicated developers of the best window manager in the known universe, on reaching such a momentous milestone! Hope to see you all at the party! :) Alex P.S.

FVWM: Happy Birthday, Fvwm!
In 1996 I installed my first Linux system, and ever since then I have been using fvwm. I compared it with dozens of other window managers, but everything else seemed feeble. Hell, without fvwm I wouldn't be able to visit the IRC chat this evening: my trackball is broken and I now depend solely on fvwm's capability of being controlled with the keyboard only :-D HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FVWM!

It came with my first SuSE X.Y, looked pretty strange compared to what I had used before (Windows, OS/2) but was quite usable already. Additionally, the .fvwm2rc delivered with my distribution seemed to me like a real programming language - which made it doubly interesting :) I compared it with dozens of other window managers, but everything else seemed feeble. *sign* Happy Birthday, Fvwm2! Thanks to all the developers who made and still make it the most versatile window manager on earth! Cheers!

FVWM: Happy Birthday, FVWM!!!
I think it was spring 1997 when I installed Linux on my computer. FVWM2 was set as default window manager. Since then I tried a couple of other wms but only for at most a couple of hours, since non of them had the robustness, fastness, and the features FVWM has. For me, besides the best window manager, FVWM is a living open source project which shows that good and free software is possible. Thanks to all, who made FVWM the best window manger ever. Happy Birthday, FVWM! Have a good one. Uwe -- ,_, Uwe Pross (O,O) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ( ) http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~uwp =--- -- Visit the official FVWM web page at URL: http://www.fvwm.org/.
