Goal
I want a WindowManager (for Linux) that I can script in Clojure.
Question:
Is there any existing window manager: XMonad, AwesomeWM, Ion, XFce4, ... that allows itself to be queried and controlled via some external interface (TCP port, Unix socket, ...) ? Basically anything that would let me completely control the WM externally.
This seems like a slightly easier approach than embedding a JVM into one of these WMs.
Thanks!
You can try stumpwm ( http://www.nongnu.org/stumpwm/). It's written in common lisp and can be controlled even via slime.

I'm looking for a database that provides access as SQLite or BerkeleyDB do: access through "in-process API calls". That would be for use in a desktop application.
Requirements:
can be linked to the desktop application (no separate process/server to be run)
document oriented, with query-able metadata/fields
indexing
persistent (disk storage)
C++ bindings
You have many alternatives, but I think that it will be difficult to find an database that meets your exact requirments
Some of the alternatives that comes to mind are HamsterDB, EJDB and FireBird. These can all be embedded into your application and provides C++ bindings.

I intend to learn a new language for better concurrency.
Erlang is a old but powerful language with a runtime to support its whole concurrency system as well as a well-known library, OTP. This is more like JVM.
Go is another language good at concurrency, while it's more like C.
My major field is about C/S and B/S. What should I prefer?

I think you guys are familiar with SFML? SFML has served me well in making games and other applications but I am wondering if it's worth it to apply it in networking? Like if I were to make a packet sniffer out of SFML, would this be a stupid choice since SFML was not intended for such things.
This is a question that is best answered by browsing SFML's documentation. It looks like Packet, SocketTCP and SocketUDP are the relevant classes, but none of them appear to provide any functionality that would let you put your NIC into promiscuous mode.
A better starting point would be libpcap.

I need to view image/heap/malloc()/stack and other resources used by process. I knew about Memory Validator but it lacks some of features.
Checkout the tools from Sys Internals.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb545027
Namely RamMap and VMMap.
If you can state what features you're looking for, then it would help to provide a better solution.
Some options:
Process explorer?
Windbg?
Visual Studio?
What exactly are you looking to view?

Anyone have any links or resource regarding writing a proper C++ FastCGI application? (on top of Apache using mod_fastcgi or mod_fcgid).
I suggest you fastcgi++, which is an alternative to the FDK.
It is much more easy to use and is in a C++ way.
The obvious one would be the FastCGI Development Kit (for C/C++).
