Metacity is a lightweight window manager written by Havoc Pennington from Red Hat. The first version was 2.3, which was released in 2001. Metacity is implemented with the GTK+ 2.x toolkit, and so integrates well with the GNOME 2.x platform. In fact the intention is to remove the traditional separation between window manager and desktop, and present to the user a single desktop interface. This means that the limited configuration options available for Metacity are shown as desktop options, not as Metacity options (although there is an optional "Metacity-setup" panel which conflicts with this approach). Whats New in This Release: Thanks to Frederic Crozat, Matthias Clasen, and Thomas Thurman for improvements in this release. - Noninteger auto-raise delay is not assumed to be zero (Thomas) (#377491) - Fix mangled window title in "Force Quit" (Frederic) (#462734) - "Close" can appear at any point in the window menu, and now appears at the bottom (Thomas) (#104026) - Windows which are always on top have "stick" insensitive (Thomas) (#460997) - All bitfields in window structure are together for optimisation (Thomas) #450271) - Use the correct directory when installing keybindings (Matthias) (#454055) Translations: Alexander Shopov (bg), Jorge González (es), Iñaki Larrañaga Murgoitio (eu), Ilkka Tuohela (fi), Theppitak Karoonboonyanan (th).
