		<h3>Philosophy</h3>
25 + 
		<p>
26 + 
		As founder and main developer of wmii I came to the conclusion that
27 + 
		wmii is too clunky for my needs. I don't need so many funky features
28 + 
		and all this hype about remote control through a 9P service, I only
29 + 
		want to manage my windows in a simple, but dynamic way. wmii never got
30 + 
		finished because I listened to users, who proposed arbitrary ideas I
31 + 
		considered useful. This resulted in an extreme <a href="http://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html">CADT model</a>
32 + 
		of developmentwhich was basically my mistake. Thus the philosophy of
33 + 
		dwm is to fit my needs. That's it.

		In contrast to wmii, dwm is only a window manager, and nothing else.
