Nobody is working on it, including me. It's just too unstable, and it
will most likely break with the updates that will be soon made to the
gtkimhtml widget. It was primarily an experiment, as I wanted to learn
how applications provided pseudo-transparency. Unfortunately, it just
did not work right in gtkimhtml.

So far, the backtraces have been useless. I have not been able to
reproduce most of the problems, and unable to fix others. I will,
however, accept patches, so if you fix a problem, feel free to e-mail
me.
