The problem I have with awesome is that it likes to make you write new configs every other release. That's why I'm still stuck with a fairly old version.

Now that they kicked xcb out of cairo (which awesome needs) which resulted in awesome getting kicked out of the arch linux community repository I think I'll just switch to i3 like all of my buddies.

I didn't even realize awesome wasn't in the Arch Linux repositories any more. I installed it from there a month ago.
