-window manager improved 2 (wmii) is an improved, modularized and
-lightweight X11 window manager which supports tabbed, tiled and
-conventional window management through layouts.
+wmii (window manager improved 2) is a dynamic window manager for X11.
+It supports classic and dynamic window management with extended
+keyboard, mouse, and filesystem based remote control. It replaces the
+workspace paradigm with a new tagging approach.
 
-wmii consists of components that are independent processes and
-communicate via a socket-based virtual filesystem which is oriented on
-the "everything is a file" paradigm of the Plan 9 operating system.
-
-The core distribution of wmii contains the window manager itself, a
-master file system routing utility (wmifs), a generic bar (wmibar), a
-shortcut handler (wmikeys), and a generic interaction menu (wmimenu)
-beside several tiny utilities like wmir, wmiplumb, and wmiwarp.
+Its minimalist philosophy attempts to not exceed 10.000 lines of code
+(including all shipped utilities and libraries), to enforce simplicity
+and clarity.
