I can't remember why, but 5 days ago I just started using dwm[1].  Ah,
  yes,  that's  why:  I've  been  playing  with  CDE,   see   entry   on
  2012-09-10[2].   I  realized  that  I  don't  need  all  of  Awesome's
  features. When I started using a tiling WM, I did indeed need them  --
  because  I  wasn't yet used to tiling. I had a different workflow. All
  this has changed.

  dwm has the potential to put an end to my window manager  journey.  It
  does  the job, it's fast and it's stable. It has no dependencies other
  than X11 itself. Its code is a lot easier to understand than Awesome's
  code.

  (Awesome  could  easily  die.  We don't know what the future holds for
  XCB.  Awesome-git is very different from  Awesome-stable,  thus  there
  would  have been a lot of work to port my elaborate configuration once
  the  next  version  is  released.  It's  all  about  complexity.  Kill
  complexity.)
