27 A. Release stopping bugs
28 ------------------------
30 F.1 Update the default config files, probably needs discussion...
31 [Thomas: Something should be done. Currently, the only thing was to

36 [Thomas: Started, as of 311209. On-going.]
38 F.3 Investigate removal of fvwm-menu-desktop and/or its replacement with

95 C.9 Moving operation delayed together with XFree86 4.2.0 xtt module
96 [#903,2002-07-07] Not an fvwm bug?
97 [Olivier: Cannot reproduce this]

101 [Olivier: unable to reproduce this problem with grace-5.1.12 and
104 C.16 Redraw problem with netscape [#791,2.4,2001-10-10]. Not a fvwm Bug?

109 C.19 fvwm 2.4.0 on HP-UX breaks xterm etc. [#767,2.4,2001-08-23]

111 HP-UX machine to test this]

115 [Olivier: unable to reproduce this]
117 C.20 Erratic EdgeScroll behavior [#766,2.4,2001-08-21]. Fixed?

138 [dv: added on 02-Mar-2003]
140 E.16 Rename all "Pixmap" in the syntax to "Image" while supporting both.
141 Rename MultiPixmap to MultiPart, since it also accepts Solid and
142 Colorset options, not just images for different titlebar parts.
144 [dv: I wouldn't do that anymore. That syntax will be removed soon after
145 the 2.6 release, so the clean up work is in vain.]
146 [Mikhael: if this was an objection, then please close this item.]
