Bonobo/ORBit is probably the best way to do this. The daemon is of course not going to have any widgets embedded anywhere. We need a good sync system for GNOME. I would love to see multisync be it. However, it is going to take a lot of work. > Of course that is my only opinion, but given the effort put in > freedesktop.org to get unified desktops, I don't see why multisync could > not attempt to do the same and be part of the game. Anyway it is your > baby and you can disagree if you want. :-) Yeah. It would be nice to have a standard plug-in specification for the sync framework. Each desktop could then have their own sync daemon/gui, but could share some plug-ins or such. > > The GUI/lib separation could be useful, but we should definately think > > about the design for a while before we start to do anything.

I would like to see a web "browser" that used the bookmarks system that is inherent in gnome, but no-one uses, except for me, apparently. Since it is just a vfolder now, with the gnome-vfs stuff, you can store bookmarks anywhere you want, and share them more easily with others. It is really quite nice. But, that discussion doesn't belong here. -- dobey
