lists are rather low level, and there is much overlap, and such a

'offtopic' discussion.

Hello,
I upgrade my Ubuntu from 7.04 to 7.10, 8.04, and finally 8.10
successfully. I did not upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 because I got a new
hard disk on which I installed a fresh new Ubuntu 9.04.
Frankly speaking, there are always something wrong after an upgrade,
but it is not hard to keep

Using a prefork or similar technique done by apache f.ex can really
accelerate such tasks, so a minimal vi editor with nice features can be
really achieved by delegating all such features to external apps or
libraries

What I find interesting is the support for multi-screen. Actually I'm
using wmii at work,
because dwm cannot properly handle multiscreen layouts and this made me
use the
mouse too much.
Wmii has some bugs, but at least is IMHO better for multiscreen layouts.

I agree with Anselm. I like a lot of your ideas in that message.
I really miss the conceptual experimentation that dwm was in the past.

I cannot understand GNU software. ls or cat source in GNU is scary,
glibc is even worse. The old UNIX utilities or Plan9 ones have a
