I think this is very good idea, and it's very interesting task.

I don't operate with fvwm so good, but I want to learn it and make good
configuration suitable for the world :)

When I begin to migrate from XFCE to fvwm (when I have spare time for this), I

something like git. And you can ask me using personal mail.
