Comment 2 for bug 63208

The above patch fixes the above checkbox to work with compiz... from within the patch itself:
"There's no _NET_WM_ACTION_ABOVE hint so always add it if window manager claims to support_NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE"

The viewport patch gives libwnck support for viewports which are used by compiz/beryl instead of workspaces, this is an fdo standard. So, we need to add viewports support to libwnck to replace workspaces if we use compiz/beryl. If not, there is no possibility/entry in the menu to change viewport/workspace.

The move patch is needed to have the viewport support patch, they work together.

The apperance patch is only for eyecandy, it adds an apperance entry in the menu that lets the users choose the opacity/britghness/saturation of the window, as well as providing a simple way to reset all those values.

The french patch simply updates the french translation (one of the patch authors was french). This probably could have its own ticket.
