I'm behind on the integration. I have recently completed the various
bugfixes. There's a pre2 tarball out there.

  http://windowmaker.org/pub/source/beta/WindowMaker-0.92.1pre2.tar.gz

I'm currently running that codebase right now to look for additional
bugs and quirks.

Then I have to take a very hard look at the future directions. I'm
hoping that when I take it as 0.92.1, that will generate interest in the
project, including some new themes.

I agree.
