My husband is involved in the Windowmaker project (webmaster/mailing
list moderator) and was asked last year to go to some conference to be
the Windowmaker presence at their booth/poster/whatever it was (I guess
nobody else could go).  He couldn't go, but I'll see (1) which Linux
thing that was and (2) how they would have gone about it because they
too don't have money.
