Hi,

I'm curious if and when mvwm will get its own website? Will you want
help with that when you start this? What about a new logo? I see the
old fvwm site that there are lots of logos! Some are cats?!

Of course I cannot speak for Thomas. But as long as I see "mvwm"
only as a working name for something that is really fvwm3 (the
plans are more then ten years old, and what we're doing is really
the old plan for fvwm3 - with some new ideas added by Thomas), I
see no need for a new web site, name or logo.

These are the result of the fvwm logo competition we had many years
ago. The official logo is the one with the cat's tail on
www.fvwm.org.

I couldn't agree more, Dominik.

its name?

Well, I'm fine if everybody has their own logo. After all, the
only places where it appears are the web site, FvwmBanner (which
I guess nobody really uses because it's annoying), and there is a
small version of the logo for use as a sidepic in menus.

Absolutely, although for the time-being, FvwmBanner has been removed
from mvwm given other alternatives. However, just because I like teddy
bears, and own a large number, I fail to see what relevance that has to
this project. As far as I am concerned, this project has a strong
history associated with cats---and in honour of that, I've even added a
photo of one of my own cats who died a few years ago now. I'd like to
keep this project assocated with cats. :)

Maybe I'm nuts, but I don't find FvwmBanner annoying.
I see it once a month or so, how could it be annoying?

But sidepics, yes, they are annoying.
