Thanks for the input :D My concept to why it belongs in Web is the simple observation that there is a "queue" view planned (hopefully in development soon). I assume that someone sending me a link should be considered as a valid addition to the queue. IMHO splitting this feature to be implemented in several Chats and Mail and Contacts seems out of place. I use Web to browse websites, manage my bookmarks and queue. So it makes sense to lookup websites I should visit from there. The queue can easily indicate where this link came from (Mail/Chat/Social Network). > > I realise that you're frustrated by the lack of Zeitgeist adoption in > GNOME, Seif.

I will not deny your claim. But I think this feature should also be considered without Zeitgeist in mind. IMHO its a valid feature that was suggested to me from a designer (so Zeitgeist was not on his mind). So I think we should keep this thread Zeitgeist free and if whoever wants to discuss frustration, there is a thread already up and running :P > > Allan > -- > IRC: aday on irc.gnome.org > Blog: http://afaikblog.wordpress.com/ Seif _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
