Hi all,
I have written down something like a "Mission Statement" for KWin [1]
and I would like to get your input on what I have written.
Why have I written that?
Lately I have been rather dissatisfied with the results of some
additions
to KWin done by non core developers (e.g. Scripting, Tabbing, Tiling)
and I don't want to see us allowing such code to enter ever again.
The second thing is that while going through (err closing) most of our
feature request I realized that we don't have any reference to give to
our users why the specific feature request won't be implemented or
conflicts with what KWin wants to be.
So I hope that this helps us in future to evaluate features against it
and at the same time make it not appear like random decisions.
Cheers
Martin

anything the next two days
