It also might help to publish your changes as a git branch on somewhere like GitHub or gitorious rather than zipping the files and submitting them to RapidShare, which is asking for me to wait a full 4 minutes just to get to the CAPTCHA to download. I decided to do something else while waiting for it, and when I got back to it, my session had expired, forcing me to wait another 4-5 minutes. I still haven't seen your code.

Most people working on Mutter read gnome-shell-list. Suggest to post
there.

Hi,

for quite some time I wanted to have a tabbing-tiling window manager
that integrates nicely
with gnome. I did some hacking on mutter to checked if it would be
possible. I got basic tiling features (with keyboard shortcuts for
hierarchical splitting, resizing tiles, moving windows to different
tiles, etc.) working. Tabbing is missing completely, yet, as I think it
needs some thought do do it sensibly.

I am wondering if there is interest in this, so I'm asking for comments.
Would like to know if it would make sense to continue with this.

If someone wants to try it out, the current version of my branch can be
found here:

http://rapidshare.com/files/452350834/notmutter_tiling_0.0.1.tar.xz

It's certainly alpha but many features to work (almost) mouse-free
already working. Notes on usage are in README.Tiling.
