Whooaaa, that's good news.
Hope the MX devs will keep their eyes on this 1.4 release and package it for testing (once available of course)

I hope that the gtk-window glitches while using composition managers like compton or picom, that I mentioned in another topic before, will be also fixed.

I don't know how much that repository is kept up to date but I've been following this one for quite sometime now. There has been 6 commits this year alone. Glad to see Mathias Gumz (and others) keep the project going.

This is my Fluxbox . There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My Fluxbox is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my Fluxbox is useless. Without my Fluxbox, I am useless.

I like to *imagine* that the MX-21 Fluxbox release (which has been quite successful for a first-timer) has played a role...
