I have appreciated these new programs that pop useful messages in the systray. Freespace-notifier is easy to configure (just one simple option) and very useful. In fact it has happened that the free space in my home was quickly consumed by .xsession-errors, and this warning would prevent the problem in the future. The only "bug" that I have met in freespace-notifier is that the three buttons overcome the window layout (i.e.: one of the button is one tenth outside the border). The update-notifier is nice, but I would like to know how it retrieves the information it displays (presumably, from apt). If this is the case, is there a demon running in background or apt is called by update- notifier? Today in VT (ctrl+alt+F1) there was a message asking to reboot, Is this message related in anyway to update-notifier? These are questions that can be interesting to be answered to in the README/man page you are preparing.
