Hi,
I would like to help fluxbox as I do have some experience in writing code and
developing applications in various languages etc. Could you give me some

Unfortunately, now I do not have enough time to maintain this package
properly, so help/comaintain would be appreciated.
I adopted fluxbox when it had more than 120 bugs. Now it has 34 bugs,

as documentation in the developper's reference. May

Bullshit. Experimental is a playground, not a graveyard for development
releases. It's supposed to be used as a testing ground for unstable,

Hi!
There's the following problem with the fluxbox package.
The locale in the etch distributive ia already set into UTF-8 as
default. Fluxbox has been maintaining UTF-8 for a long time.
From July in experimental/ there had been 0.9.15version with
full maintaining of UTF-8.

The fluxbox in woody, 0.1.7-3 diverts /usr/bin/bsetbg to
/usr/bin/bsetbg.blackbox, but it only removes those diversions in
postrm/remove. Installing and deinstalling this package works fine,
with or without blackbox installed:
