Sorry I didn't respond yesterday, but I was out sick.

Please don't put out a patched up 2.0.46. It causes even more
confusion when people start sending email to the list with problems -
it's hard enough now to get people to say what version they have, let
alone is it patched up version A put out by so and so, or their own
patched up version from the unofficial patches directory or whatever
else. It's bad enough that we still see fvwm95 questions on the
lists...

I already have a collection of the patches that I believe should go
into 2.0.47 and am putting them togther (slowly). Some of the patches
are different than the originals posted. Fvwm *IS* still under
development, admittedly not as rapidly as I would like, and
2.0.47 is almost ready. Certain things in my life have been taking
even more time than normal over the past couple of months, but it
looks like things will clear up a little after this upcoming weekend
so I should have some more time to get back to working on fvwm and
perhaps get 2.0.47 out before too much longer.
