The way I see it, the point of contrib modules is to provide functionality that should have some place in StumpWM but isn't applicable to everyone. For example, not everyone has a WiFi card, but the wifi module is probably useful for those that do.
Integrating the contrib modules into the main distribution would lead to bloat, and having them in a separate repository would create extra hassle for people who want some one additional feature that happens to be in contrib. -- X-Real-Email-With-Antispam: krzysdrewniak at gmail dot com pgp key on keyserver.ubuntu.com 2388E924
