Some quick and dirty ideas for the name:
 SWM like "Simple Window Manager" or "Suckless Window Manager"
 SDWM "Stripped DWM" or "simple dynamic window manager"
 FSWM "Full Screen Window Manager"
 MOWM "MOnocle Window Manager"
 XTWM "X Tiling Window Manager"

I could not stop thinking of this concept since I read this post.
Mostley because I have fooled around with ratpoison a bit the last
weeks. So tonight I sat down and tried to realise some of the ideas
with dwm-5.5 as foundation. It is almost only cut'n'paste from the
source and removing some parts.

I have kept mwfac because I think i maybe nice to have a layout where
the screen is split into two sections (just realised I should have
kept zoom() then). Floating layout is still there because I think it
is nice to be able to handle floats and apps like gimp in a flexible
fashion.

Client numbering is a bit screwed up to. This because clients are
added to the list of clients in a fifo fashion and I have not figured
out how to change this behavior. Do I need to change booth attach and
attachstack?

And I hope I have not screwed up in some licensing manner.

Here it is I some one would like to check it out.
