windowmaker.info Back Online
posted on 2008-06-30 09:04:16 by kairi

    windowmaker.info has been brought online as of early July, 2008. We are currently working on reimplementing the site in a more modern, safe fashion, while at the same time restoring all services required for development and communication. With that said, we are working very hard to revitalize Window Maker's presence on X Window (and perhaps beyond) desktops. With this new focus, we can now truly assert that Window Maker will be resuming active development very soon. We expect to once again provide the de-facto minimalist yet extremely functional window manager to the world.
Downtime Explanation

    It has unfortunately taken us a lot longer than expected to restore the site after a recent hardware upgrade, and this is the reason the site was unavailable for so long. Web and FTP downloads are working again. The mailing lists and CVS are still currently unavailable, but we're working on getting them back up and running as soon as possible. Stay tuned.

    After years without a release, we are glad to announce that Window Maker 0.90.0 is out!

The ChangeLog is huge, but highlights are:

  • UTF-8 support
  • antialiased text support via Xft2
  • Xinerama support
  • enhanced Alt-Tab window switching
  • Font configuration in WPrefs
