? From: rws@expo.lcs.mit.edu (Bob Scheifler) ? Not uwm. (In fact, uwm is being orphaned...) To be replaced with what? AWM? TWM? BTW, I once heard that the `u' in `uwm' stood for `ugly'. Perhaps there are official/unofficial names for uwm? Is there any truth to that rumor? Root Boy Jim is what I am Are you what you are or what?
