COMPILING METACITY

You need GTK+ 1.3.x (to become 2.0), at least version 1.3.9. At the
moment CVS HEAD works, but that can change. Metacity is a fairly
trivial 6000-line C program, so once you get GTK+ built it should be
no problem to build Metacity.
There are SRPMs on the ftp site (there were also binaries for a bit,
but I am taking them down because they only worked with Rawhide, so it
was sort of pointless). Just "rpm --rebuild metacity-whatever.src.rpm"
after installing the GTK packages from ftp.gtk.org.
There are SRPMs and sometimes RPMs on the ftp site, but you'd be
pretty lucky to get them to work for now, since they are often out of
sync with GTK. You might try with the GTK from ftp.gtk.org, and also
the GTK from http://people.redhat.com/hp/gnomehide/.
REPORTING BUGS AND SUBMITTING PATCHES
===
Report new bugs to hp@redhat.com for now. Will switch to Bugzilla
sometime probably.
Report new bugs on http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
Feel free to send patches too; Metacity is really small and simple, so
if you find a bug or want to add a feature it should be pretty easy.
Send me mail, or put the patch in bugzilla.
See the HACKING file for some notes on hacking Metacity.

clicking the minimize button is sort of a bad idea.
(If you had a WM-spec-compliant tasklist, it would work
for unminimization.)
(Update: you can use "test-wnck" from the libwnck CVS module to
unminimize, but it's not much of a UI ;-)

the old GNOME spec. It correctly advertises exactly which parts of

instead of Alt as the main keybinding shortcut, if super/hyper
exist, and then keyboards with a windows key can use that for
WM functions and Alt for application shortcuts.
We'd fall back to Alt if no other suitable modifier existed.
- Cycling windows with Alt-Tab is flickery, AFAIK because
Metacity passes the entire window stack to XRestackWindows()
every time you restack. Instead it should probably only restack
windows that have changed their stacking with respect to one
another. (But sometimes I don't see the flicker, so
I'm not sure.)
We'd fall back to Alt if no other suitable modifier existed.
- I haven't even read the ICCCM section about colormaps. So if you
have an 8-bit display you are basically screwed.
