Modified: fluxbox-config.xml
Log:
lots of changes. in order, they are: punt gdm and its heavy dependencies in favor of the more appropriate minimal SLiM. xfce, gnome and friends are not WMs. emerging gvim will pull in vim. remove references to old fluxbox versions and programs that have not been in the tree in years.
