Let me just put in my vote that the new sawfish configurator tabbed
interface is really bad, and given that the new sawfish takes away other
old features that people like, it might be worth it to just stick with the
old sawfish in the new release, unless there are reasons the sawfish that
9.2 runs has to be a newer one.  The sawfish mailing list archives at
lists.eazel.com seem to be down (they're linked from
sawmill.sourceforge.net), so I'm not sure how to figure out if the bad
changes are in the mainline of sawfish or are a Redhat 9.0 quirk.

(Anyone know what's going on with sawfish these days, and what happened to
the mailing list archives? I used to be on the list long ago, and I'd like
to get back on it)
