| 2021-03-10 16:18:16 | <daphnis> | has anyone tried xmonad with a superwide screen? i imagine it would be a bit annoying with few windows. |
| 2021-03-10 16:18:58 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Yes, take a look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70IxjLEmomg |
| 2021-03-10 16:19:39 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | You can have multiple 'screens' within one layout |
| 2021-03-10 16:20:18 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | you can also, like this person does it, have it dynamically adjust itself depending on resolution. e.g switching from laptop to monitor screen |

| 2021-03-10 17:02:45 | <geekosaur> | you could also use a layout like ThreeColumn |
| 2021-03-10 17:04:00 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | or sublayouts, with something like threecolumn |
| 2021-03-10 17:05:10 | <daphnis> | hm, it's the solarized guy |
| 2021-03-10 17:06:02 | <geekosaur> | LayoutCombinators lets you arbitrarily split the screen up horizontally or vertically |
| 2021-03-10 17:06:16 | <daphnis> | i'm using three columns now, but i was thinking of a really wide screen (50") |
| 2021-03-10 17:07:04 | <daphnis> | what is the thing called tabbed grouped layouts in the video? |

| 2021-03-10 17:13:05 | <daphnis> | looks promising |
| 2021-03-10 17:18:43 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | It failed for me (weird artifacts), but that may be due to other modifiers I have |

| 2021-03-10 18:24:19 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | geekosaur: Why hasn't a release been done in several years? `xmonad-contrib` is bustling w/ activity rn, or at least, in comparison to the niche-ness of a tiling wm, it's pretty active. |
| 2021-03-10 18:24:27 | <geekosaur> | it |
| 2021-03-10 18:24:45 | <geekosaur> | 's bustling with activity because we'd like t make a release in time for the next debian release freeze |
| 2021-03-10 18:26:01 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Ah, 2 days |
| 2021-03-10 18:27:36 | <geekosaur> | sounds like we won't quite make it, or at least some changes won't |
| 2021-03-10 18:29:08 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Sorry if I was a huge timesink to anyone working on that. I had no idea this was happening. |
| 2021-03-10 18:30:47 | <geekosaur> | no, I think we just tossed a few too many logs on the fire. (there's a redesign of the statusbar stuff going on, for instance, which probably won't make it) |
| 2021-03-10 18:31:30 | <Liskni_si> | are we really trying to make the release before the freeze? |
| 2021-03-10 18:31:30 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | You could always just go back a few commits for the release, couldn't you? |
| 2021-03-10 18:31:40 | <Liskni_si> | I've sort of given up on that tbh :-/ |
| 2021-03-10 18:32:26 | <geekosaur> | Liskni_si, that was what started the whole rush. things like the above and peti kinda slowed the whole thing down, though |
| 2021-03-10 18:32:53 | <Liskni_si> | oh |
| 2021-03-10 18:33:16 | <Liskni_si> | I just thought it'd be nice to make it by then, but it was never a hard deadline to me |

| 2021-03-10 18:33:50 | <geekosaur> | well, I don't know how hard it is. would be nice to have the version in debian not be ancient, bu then it is debian… |
| 2021-03-10 18:34:06 | <Liskni_si> | although yeah, if the peti incident hadn't happened, we could've had the core released by now |
| 2021-03-10 18:35:20 | <Liskni_si> | also, the peti incident led me to trying to contact debian maintainers and that went nowhere |

| 2021-03-10 18:35:35 | <Liskni_si> | so caring about debian seems a bit futile at this point |

| 2021-03-10 18:36:33 | <Liskni_si> | I should maybe ping nomeata as he's listed among the debian xmonad maintainers and we've had some very nice interactions in the arbtt project |
| 2021-03-10 18:36:36 | <geekosaur> | I think we could still release without the new statusbar stuff and a few other things that are pending, if we wanted to — but you're also right about no response from the debian maintainers |
| 2021-03-10 18:37:17 | <Liskni_si> | yeah, if we really wanted to release, that could definitely be done |
| 2021-03-10 18:37:50 | <mc47> | don't we have breaking changes that are fixed by 399? |
| 2021-03-10 18:38:02 | <Liskni_si> | but I'd really like to deal with the ewmh window activation and statusbar stuff before that |
| 2021-03-10 18:38:21 | <Liskni_si> | otherwise keeping compatibility will become way more painful than it already is |
| 2021-03-10 18:38:45 | <Liskni_si> | mc47: yeah we do, but some of that could be reverted for the release perhaps |
| 2021-03-10 18:39:46 | <mc47> | oh, right |
| 2021-03-10 18:39:51 | <Liskni_si> | heck-to-the-gnom: anyway your being a timesink has had no measurable impact on these things I'd say :-) |
| 2021-03-10 18:40:31 | <Liskni_si> | (not to encourage you to be more of a timesink, just to clarify the timescales we're talking about) |
| 2021-03-10 18:42:11 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | :) |
| 2021-03-10 18:43:10 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | Nah, I'll bother others with my time. I've gotten some nix things sorted out on my end, and the stuff we were discussing earlier should start working once I get a nix derivation made. |
| 2021-03-10 18:44:43 | <geekosaur> | actually you were somewhat helpful I'd say, in testing some of the new stuff |
| 2021-03-10 18:44:59 | <geekosaur> | and pointing out e.g. missed dependencies |
| 2021-03-10 18:45:30 | <geekosaur> | (although I'd also argue that if you're running git xmonad you should say so up front to avoid problems like the MaybeManageHook one) |
| 2021-03-10 18:46:21 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | I plan to get more involved with this project in the future. I'm still in the baby Haskell programmer stage, though. |
| 2021-03-10 18:46:46 | <geekosaur> | many of us started out as baby haskell programmers |
| 2021-03-10 18:46:54 | <geekosaur> | xmonad is still a gateway drug :) |
| 2021-03-10 18:47:08 | <heck-to-the-gnom> | I'm fine hittin' that :) |
