Window Maker 0.80.1 is mostly a bugfix release. However some features have been added. The window menu has now a "Hide Others" item. The WPrefs menu editor allows to browse for files and directories. Last but not least, various new translations have been added.

Window Maker 0.80.0 brings many improvements. You can now shade/unshade windows using a mouse wheel on their titlebar. More on this there
The application icons are now shared by default. More on this there
The dock and the clip can "steal" appicons. More on this here or there.
The Exit window has now a checkbox allowing to save the workspace on exit.

As for Window Maker 0.70.0, the libPropList dependancy has been removed. Property list is now managed from WINGs. Accordingly, you don't need to download, compile and install it before compiling and installing Window Maker.
You can now copy/paste launch in dock. That is, you can copy an URL from a text, for instance, and paste it at launch time in Netscape dock icon, middle-clicking this last. Netscape then directly opens the corresponding page.
