                dwm is a dynamic window manager for X11.

+               <h3>Philosophy</h3>
+               <p>
+               As founder and main developer of wmii I came to the conclusion that
+               wmii is too clunky for my needs. I don't need so many funky features
+               and all this hype about remote control through a 9P service, I only
+               want to manage my windows in a simple, but dynamic way. wmii never got
+               finished because I listened to users, who proposed arbitrary ideas I
+               considered useful. This resulted in an extreme <a href="http://www.jwz.org/doc/cadt.html">CADT model</a>
+               of developmentwhich was basically my mistake. Thus the philosophy of
+               dwm is to fit my needs. That's it.
+               </p>
                <h3>Differences to wmii</h3     
                <p>
                In contrast to wmii, dwm is only a window manager, and nothing else.
