> Their philosophy[1] says nothing of the sort

Their philosophy doesn't, but their page for dwm[0] does :D

"Because dwm is customized through editing its source code, it's pointless to make binary packages of it. This keeps its userbase small and elitist. No novices asking stupid questions. There are some distributions that provide binary packages though."

Welp, I stand corrected. :D

I have to say, that is a bit obnoxious. Still, I don't think it's right to generalize that their users ascribe to that mentality. Quality software can be produced by people we don't agree with morally.
