So, are any of you using it? Out of all the blackbox children it seems the most like the original blackbox concept. The main differences I could see from a quick use are mouse wheel support for switching workspace, and the ability to drag an app to another workspace, and more configurable. Other than that it feels and acts just like BB.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Fluxbox also has those features...?

Yeah it does, sort of, openbox has virtual desktops sort of like Waimea, but only horizontally.
I use FB because I like tabs, but there are some who don't seem to care for them. Seems there is little buzz about openbox, but I could see how a person who chooses BB over FB may appreciate it's close evolution.

Interesting, this is the first I've heard of it. I just checked out the website.
