Well, I didn't want to make things too complicated. I may be recalling the history wrong, but I believe all or most of the things in gnome-applets still started out the way I describe: they weren't there in GNOME 2.0, they were created later, as add-ons. I believe at first most of them were external, and gnome-applets came about as a way to roll up and 'bless' the most commonly used and officially 'accepted' applets so they'd be maintained and released along with the rest of GNOME. Perhaps the same will happen with GNOME 3 and there'll be a gnome-extensions later. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
