http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247373 . it's even a HIG
violation currently. MUSTFIX.
it's the most annoying bug that i know of.
can you imagine how many times a day i had to press away those 1 or
sometimes even 3 pop up windows just because my wireless lan wasn't
stable? must have been a few thousand times within the last two years!
this has been punted for one and a half year now.

this is a sentence that any worker anywhere should say, and it's
extremely vague. wasn't the question about the *plans*? aren't there
any?

and this purpose comes up now, three weeks before UI change announcement
period? so what is http://go-evolution.org/UI2.6 for?

and why having http://go-evolution.org/UIHackfest ? i've even updated it
in october and i'm going to update it again within the next two days if
you want me to, so just *u-s-e* it! it's also a nice place to start.

a bit late for thinking of having *another* list now. go ahead and just
code, i'd say - three weeks are still left for non-trivial issues.

sorry if i sound rude or if i exaggerate, but what has time been spent
on for the last two months? the new appt and meeting UI? hmm.

please start flaming me: now. ;-)

cheers,
andre

...and also a MUSTFIX: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=260354
