The examples could be a lot more useful to newcomers if there was the slightest bit of text describing the general features of the config files. The text does not need to be very in depth just something that would make the odds of finding something relevant to me better than 1 in N. For Example:

  • carmen.py
    Optimized for netbook / small screen
  • willis.py
    Heavily modified keyboard commands and multiple widgets
  • nanette.py
    xrandr for multiple monitors, custom arrangement and multimedia friendly (now playing, mpd control, etc)
  • leigh.py
    Imitates xmonad
  • vanessa.py
    Application specific layouts
  • karina.py
    Two monitors with task specific layouts
  • buford.py
    Laptop and external monitor

I realize that it might be difficult to go back and fill in the details but at the very least have a contribution requirement that any PRs must be accompanied with a short blurb about the config to be added.

Great suggestion, thanks. I also used this opportunity to re-work the repo layout, which I've been thinking about doing since the 0.8 release. Anyway, thanks, and let us know if you have something to PR.
