it's always the same thing here. People propose things that are very
complex solutions for simplistic problems, and they end up being accepted
due to negligience. However, only a few people actually maintain the
pull requestes in the long run, which is a shame.
The dwm pull request section just needs an overhaul analogous to the st
pull request section had. End of story.
It's already difficult enough getting people to maintain their
pull requestes now, let alone in some dropbox environment.
