Please don't. I followed your activities of the last days and was really excited about them. It looked to me that their was a future for wmii(-3), and I was wondering if you would start to maintain the 3.x-series as a branch for those of us who don't want to switch immediately to wmii-4. Yesterday I tried switching to ruby-ixp when I discovered that Mauricio Fernandez ported his ruby-wmii to it. I really felt excited then. Unfortunately, wmiirc hanged after a very short period. IIRC it said it was waiting for the IXP server. I can't find anything about this in the logs, though. However, I don't think this came from libixp overload. I was watching a movie at this time. Perhaps it even is a problem with Mauricio's ruby-wmii. > And, hg tip is unusable for anything other than not exhibiting this > bug (wmiir read / returns garbage and other files are not > accessible).
