XWEM does not work under GNU Emacs control.  But only on XEmacs, and
it is already official xemacs package(you can grab most recent sources
from xemacs packages cvs repository).  Link above is out of date. 
Most recent information about XWEM you can find at http://www.xwem.org

Reading this thread about how people uses X was really exciting, i
found that XWEM benefits almost every idea about managing windows that
was mentioned in this thread.
