Yes i did and I had to abandon that for the reasons you mention.

Let's see how far this goes out into the international community.

Hi Andrew,


If I remember correctly, a long time ago you have proposed a similar word, 
"defenestration" - am I correct, was that you?


In any case, exfinister is better than defenester, as defenestration is the act 
of throwing someone out of a window: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestration (and it's also the name of a heavy 
metal band). On the other hand, exfinister is unused!

Hi mluggers,
       it gives me great pleasure to present to the World a new word (and 
derivatives) dedicated to an ever increasing activity : the act of removing 
windows. I mean, people are installing aluminium windows where there were once 
were rotting wooden ones, PVC windows instead of rusting wrought iron windows 
etc. It is of interest to note that a product bearing the name 'Windows' is 
sometimes the focus of the MLUG's attention so I thought that the word (and 
derivatives) could be used in that context if/when that activity occurs.

It would be great if Mr. Casha could apply his linguistic skills and see if he 
can adapt this to the Maltese language close to this launch.


Cheers

Andrew
