I had been working behind the scenes trying to resolve some very long
outstanding domain-name issues. I am very pleased to announce that
thanks to some good folks at AloeSoft <http://www.aloesoft.com/>[1], we
have the windowmaker.org domain.

   [1] Specifically, Joel Sager and Chris Compton

Yes, Carlos has been doing a wonderful job and I am very pleased to have
his assitance.

I have done that. At least twice. As Carlos himself pointed out, he
declined and I respect his reasons and opinions.

Once I finish my current batch of patches (32 features. 10 bugfixes, 5
I'm-still-not-sure-which) I can then look at the patches in Carlos'
repository.
