I am new to this list, but I would like to suggest one idea today.   For 3.10 I 
would like [:::] to be relocated to the top panel next to Activity.  That would 
save two mouse clicks.

As for mouse clicks consider this (3.8 version)

click Activity--»Activity (program not in favourites)
click [:::] »» Program not in frequent grouping
click »» Add
Scroll
Click »» System
Click »» rarely used program in this grouped listing

Six Mouse Clicks to launch a program is way too many, By putting the [:::] to 
the panel, we could save 2 or more mouse clicks.

Justification
I was doing some heavy testing, filling up completely the frequent grouping. As 
we know, the frequent grouping is the dynamic favourites.  At the same time I 
began getting tendonitus from all the left mouse button work.  Has someone 
thought that it should not ever require six mouse clicks to start a rarely used 
application?

request 2,

Provide a way to purge entries in frequent.  If I accidently enter an 
application, it gets automatically posted to the Frequent side. How to I purge 
it? 
  
As this is my first posting, please advise me if I am writing to the correct 
development list? If it is wrong, or you would like clarificant 

With 3.6, we had catagories on the right side (consider right side of ALL as in 
3.8) Can those categories be reintroduced for ALL?

And since I am remembering things, will we be able one day to tag our 
applications by a keyword, such as  NewYork (for applications related to NY), 
or for any viable tag name.
The tagging kind of offers subsetting and faster access time for a subset of 
icons.

For the first idea, maybe something like this could be useful:

http://code.google.com/p/gnome-gmail-notifier/

I've been using it in both GNOME 2 and GNOME 3 ant id works properly with 
notifications, so it would be a good starter point.


Cheers!

Dear all,



unfortunately, I don't know if I will have the manpower in the next six

months to contribute actively to GNOME, so I'm just dropping two ideas

for features here. I believe they would benefit a good number of users.



* Finally have evolution display notifications for new messages while

the main UI is not open. There was a proposal in this direction several

cycles ago, but I believe it was postponed indefinitely. Has

evolution-data-server all the needed pieces? This is not conceptually

much different than notifications for new chat messages. Sure, it can be

achieved by some another different small program which needs to be

configured separately, but it would be nice to have this well integrated

with the rest of the GNOME experience.



* Add social network notifications. Some of them could be read-only

notifications (e.g. for Google+, which does not provide a write API),

others could afford to offer an interface similar to the one used for

chat (e.g. for Facebook and Twitter) where you can respond. Gwibber

attempted to do some of these things, but a solution integrated with

g-o-a (which already has the authentication pieces in place) +

gnome-shell seem to make much sense.



Anyway, thanks for your strenuous work!



Cheers,
