i3wm based minimal Spin?

[Fabio Alessandro Locati]

I was thinking about it too... but I think that i3wm may be not the
right one since is based on Xorg and there is no plan to support
wayland in the near future. http://swaywm.org/ is a project to write
an i3wm port to wayland. I think it could be interesting to be based
on it
