I agree that your target is good and that ideally we would not need the tray. But I do miss a replacement, seriously, without TopIcons I would not be using Gnome. I am not alone, just look at the popularity of topicons and topicons plus and read the comments. So, no, not really a victory. _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list gnome-shell-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
