Have started using Sawmill as my window manager. It feels quite nice and is very configurable. I am sure I could easily waste hours getting it to act exactly how I want it to :)

Have started working on the new ExtensionClass based pygtk code. It is on the extension-class-branch of pygtk in CVS. Currently there is not much to see other than a program to convert header files to Havoc's new defs file format and a program to merge changes from one defs file into another (needed because the header parser is not perfect and there is some info that is just not included in C headers). There is also a bit of code in pygtk/gtk/ (I am rearanging some of the modules to be nicer to the module namespace, and friendlier to case insensitive platforms such as win32). Code generator comes next.

A new SVG draft came out. It includes stuff about `Exchange SVG'. Maybe it would be good to use it for the shape files in dia instead of the current method using style attributes.
