+A simple GTK+ window manager that tries not to get in your way.
+</shortdesc>
+ <description xml:lang="en">
+A window manager for GNOME, with a focus on simplicity and usability
+rather than novelties or gimmicks.  It uses GTK+ 2 for drawing window frames,
+so that it inherits colours, fonts, and so on from the GTK+ theme.  Its author
+has characterised it as a &quot;boring window manager for the adult in you.
+Many window managers are like Marshmallow Froot Loops; Metacity is like Cheerios.&quot;
