firstly: Yay!
The release announcment looked like this ( just in case you missed it ):
We are happy to release version 0.2 of samurai-x. samurai-x is a window manager written in pure python using ctypes, xcb and cairo. A lot has happened since version 0.1 including: * a new plugin system - the core samurai-x is now very small with all other functionality added via plugins * a new xcb binding - ooxcb - for more information see http://docs.samurai-x.org/ooxcb/ * lots of plugins! we now have plugins for most common features found in other window managers For more information, including installation instructions check http://samurai-x.org or join us in #samuraix on irc.freenode.net Big thanks to all have helped out with samurai-x but especially to Friedrich Weber for writing ooxcb and all the other work on samurai-x he has done and also to Jochen Maes for hosting the project.
So whats in store for sx 0.3 and beyond? Hopefully:
- better config management - we need some schema or something so plugins can validate configs and also show something in --default-config
- pypy support - hopefully fred is going to make us some nice rpython for ooxcb but also I hope to get sx running on pypy
- did someone say compositing...?
So stay tuned! Lots of exciting code to come!
