"Awesome is a floating and tiling window manager. It's extremely fast, small, dynamic and awesome. Windows can be managed in several layouts: tiled, maximized, dwindle, spiral, floating... Each layout can be applied on the fly, optimizing the environment for the application in use and the task performed. Managing windows in tiled mode assures that no space will be wasted on your screen. No gaps, no overlap. Other layouts can be used for different purpose. If you do not want to use the tiling management, you can use the floating layout wich will let you organize your windows as you wish, like any other window manager." Version 2.3-final has been released today.

It could be nice to see some tiling window manager features be implemented in bigger desktop environments (KDE, Xfce, Gnome) too and in their window managers. Maybe as extra add-on software if not integrated into their default window managers?
Anybody know about any such software projects?
