But since Window Maker Live also contains a fair share of XFCE components, thunar was the better choice, as it is better integrated with these. Also, pcmanfm seems to be not very actively maintained by the upstream maintainer, unlike thunar.

Strangely enough, GWorkspace doesn't feel to be well integrated with Window Maker from a user's point of view. I was considering it for the project, but the competitors from the Gnome and XFCE areas are so much more useful. I know, it is a pity. Regarding GNUstep: They are "almost there" since already a few years, but the intended goal appears to move away much faster than the current development speed can afford. If i am not completely mistaken, there doesn't appear to be much happening on the GNUstep side, but i do hope that my estimation of their status is plain wrong. Please better use wmaker-user for any such discussions, as this is not really specific to the development of Window Maker itself. While both are closely related, the Window Maker Live distribution project and the Window Maker window manager are two separate projects with different areas of activities.
