I worked about 2.5 weeks on katriawm. Almost 24/7. Following that, I spend about 1.5 weeks on mostly using it. That includes real life usage at work. (Yes, I have the luxury of choosing my bloody window manager at work.) In the last 2.5 days, I implemented some more features that were rather important. katriawm is now almost on the same level as my dwm fork. Of course, that is thanks to dwm's authors. katriawm is pretty similar to dwm in many ways, so I could "copy" some important pieces of code. I didn't have to reinvent the wheel. The project is a complete success. I learned so much. That's exactly what I was looking for.
