ICCCM is but one piece of the multitude of half-baked and extremely-fragmented protocols that make up the modern X11 environment, by the way.
- DonHopkins 11y agoHow true! Emacs has always been a window manager, anyway. Why try to fight destiny? "In summary, ICCCM is a technological disaster: a toxic waste dump of broken protocols, backward compatibility nightmares, complex nonsolutions to obsolete nonproblems, a twisted mass of scabs and scar tissue intended to cover up the moral and intellectual depravity of the industry's standard naked emperor." - Don Hopkins, The X-Windows Disaster [1] "Using these toolkits is like trying to make a bookshelf out of mashed potatoes." - Jamie Zawinski [1] http://www.art.net/~hopkins/Don/unix-haters/x-windows/disaster.html http://www.art.net/~hopkins/Don/unix-haters/x-windows/disast...

I do wonder how much that has come out of DE related devs seemingly having a phobia relating maintenance. Any time some project seems to run out of new features to add, they scrap it and rewrite it from scratch.
