"Workspace is written from scratch. Some WindowMaker code is a part of Workspace (as well as configuration defaults) to provide window management functions. The code is tightly coupled with Workspace to provide seamless intergation. Configurable parameters of the integrated WindowMaker are spread across Workspace's Preferences and Preferences application."

Can you call it Itanic if it was around for more than a decade because of how well it sold and how many supercomputers chose to use it? I am familiar with the pain of Itanium, and I understand how hard it was to work with. I've kernel debugged an operating system on it. Yet it was still successful enough to be around for this long. I wouldn't call it "Itanic."
