Right -- the UX designers' verdict was that the systray is prone to abuse and actually causes more problems than it solves. For apps that can't be fixed, like skype, the matchbox panel is provided. For everything else, proper integration into the netbook UX and notification system is recommended. If you're developing an app for which it is justifiable to permanently take up a little part of the screen, you probably want to look at adding a toolbar panel. - Rob _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev http://wiki.meego.com/Mailing_list_guidelines
