The whole point is not duplicate the work that one of us has already 
done :) the point is to try something 'totally' different that what one 
of us has done.

Jorn tried Debian + JWM so all of us need to try something totally 
different. Totally different WM.

Last night, Melodie send me this on IRC:
http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=18273&p=1

It might help us :)

Just choose whatever you wish but don't go for JWM :D
Again, the point of these emails is to keep everyone posted about what 
one of us has chosen so the others can avoid his/her very choice ;)

I don't have any issue with Ubuntu 12.04 Mini ISO and Oracle VM :)
I don't use any media, I just ask the VM to read the ISO as a LiveCV 
within the VM and that is all. Never had problems.
