the user might be online with an important work user during the meeting giving updates , but since he might be disturbed by personal buddy message he has to triage his work/friends and create separate accounts just because the system wont allow easy ways to close the notifications? or a simpler way might be disable all messages? as someone said not all the presentations are fullscreen presentations. this is a problem not necessarily disturbance during a presentation, but during any system usage, imagine the a *co-worker popping by* and is checking ur work , does he need to be notified too of ur personal mails?! *this system is just an embarrassment waiting to happen for the user* ! so now ,is the solution never to have an im/email client open? i would say the presence of a easy close, would be a welcome solution. cheers, mac_v _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
