I am curious. What is the advantadge of disabling dock when one still wants to 
use dockapps? I see only the issue of having to patch every single dockapp out
there. You've done that already, so there must be a strong reason :-)

So it looks like the majority disagrees with having them inside wmaker sources.

I volunteered to carry some dockapps inside a folder in wmaker-crm to have 
the "most important ones" close together with wmaker itself. It would help 
beginner users for issues like:

  "I don't get a systemtray with wmaker, nor a easy way to mount things. And 
   the apps I care about expect a systemtray and I don't want to fiddle with
   /etc/fstab everytime I install a new distro. So I simply use KDE and be 
   done with it."

That was my point.

I've seen the "it would be cool to have dockapps together somewhere" without
understanding what is wrong with dockapps.org. Broken links to original 
homepages? So what?
