IMHO we need a developmen branch and a stable one. Quite easy with
mercurial, indeed.
My point is that a stable dwm with monthly releases (not a fixed amount of
time, but in this range) will benefit us in several ways:
 * less distracting (it will be easier to ignore development branch
messages)
 * patches will have time to really fine-tune their patches and add new ones
instead of being porting the patches every week
 * you can experiment more heavily in the dev branch (like changing colors
as much as you want w/out generating a new changeset which I read logs to
keep up to date when I can't follow the list)
 * everybody can help with st because they have a working-stable dwm

I know it's you creature, I'm just thinking aloud.

cheers,
