Re: [STUMP] [stumpwm-contrib]

Hi David,

Thanks for clearing this up even further!

By the way, is there any single source of truth for for all those
changes vectors you described? Maybe some kind of TODO list was
established somewhere? I've migrated to stumpwm about more than
3 years at this time and very much like both the idea and all the hard
work doen form the start including yours. 

So now Stumpwm is large part of my workflow and I want it to evolve ant
thrive even further. I talk about all this because despite having not
too much time to hack on stumpwm I definitely want to help making it
better. For example, I keep in mind our talk some time ago (on Github)
about improving stumpwm-contrib extensions documentation. I think it
could be good staring point (though not much of writing code). Moreover,
I have some thoughts about improving stumpwm itself - at least what I've
found cumbersome or in some other way distracting. These thoughts may be
wrong in any way due to possible disalignment with current stumpwm
development (new ideas introduced/implemented, etc.), that's why I'm
asking :)

regards, 
Alex
