developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
Although the computer screen is two-dimensional, today most users of
windowing environments control their systems with a one-dimensional
list of choices -- the standard pull-down or drop-down menus such as
those found on Microsoft Windows, Presentation Manager, or the
Macintosh.
An alternative user-interface technique is "pie" menus -
two-dimensional, circular, and in many ways easier to use and faster
than conventional linear menus. Pie menus also work well with
alternative pointing devices such as those found in stylus or
pen-based systems.
piewm is a virtual window manager based on tvtwm, which uses pie menus.
