Bug#152194: ITP: golem -- Golem is an X11 Window Manager.



Hmmm, this seems to be my week for picking on ITP descriptions.

No need to repeat the name in the short description, as every place that
displays the short description shows the name right next to it. Also, 
"an X11 Window Manager" doesn't tell me much, you might consider something like

Description: a fast and small X11 window manager

Other details: the consensus seems to be no trailing period, but there
has been recent discussion about this, and I don't remember what the
result was. Also, I'd argue that "window manager" doesn't need to be
capitalized, but a quick look at the existing situation shows about half
are and half aren't.

    The irony is that Bill Gates claims to be making a stable operating
    system and Linus Torvalds claims to be trying to take over the
    world.       -- seen on the net
