 I added a table to the wm-spec main page, I hope it's ok that way. As it's 
currently listing only one WM, please make sure it doesn't feel too lonesome 
there :).

 The details entry is meant rather for us developers, so that if e.g. somebody 
wants to check some problem related to fullscreen windows handling, they can 
just check the table and grep the details file for _NET_WM_STATE_FULLSCREEN. 
That is, e.g. for FVWM just saying fvwm/fvwm/ewmh.c is ok.

 BTW - is the wiki not restricted at all? I just created a wiki account, and 
could immediately modify the page.
