We already did notice this discussion. ;-)

I also thought powersave could become a cross-desktop discussion, but the 
answers of Richard Hughes and some other ppl on the list looks for me as if a 
useful targeted discussion is not possible. They want to do their stuff and 
have no real interest in a common cross-desktop daemon and a open discussion. 
But this is _my_ impression, maybe I'm wrong.

I would like also see more cooperation, but after this thread and the reaction 
of the gnome guys (including the g-p-m maintainer) I'm pessimistic also if 
there are ppl which whish e.g. a seperate daemon (see e.g. mail from Davyd 
Madeley).

If we would like to find a way to get a common cross-desktop daemon (or at 
least a common well defined DBUS-powermanagement interface), we need more 
people reporting this whish and discuss this topic.

Cheers,

Danny
