[Bug 133319] [needs-packaging] dieu

[Will Farrington]

Public bug reported:

I'm a co-author of Dieu, a social bookmarking tray applet designed for
GNOME.

"dieu is a social bookmarking tool for the GNOME desktop, inspired by
the OS X tools Pukka and delibar. dieu tries to be fast and stay out of
your way, while allowing you to quickly and easily bookmark the sites
you want.

Have you ever gone on vacation and tried to do something from a public
terminal, only to realize that you can't remember the website you
wanted? Have you ever read an interesting article and forgotten where
you found it when you want it? Have you ever wanted to share a list of
interesting links with your friends and family?

Social bookmarking websites solve this. By allowing you post your
bookmarks to the web instead of to your own walled garden, you can find
them at any time and use them just as easily. But their interfaces are
often clunky and slow, built around AJAX and other flashy web
technologies that end up with you wasting time loading and rendering.

That's where dieu comes in. With dieu, bookmarking and posting your
favorite websites is as simple as 'click - tag - go.' You'd be amazed
how much faster things are. "

Our project site can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/dieu/

Dieu is written in Python and depends on the following packages
(according to their names in Gutsy): python-gtk2, python-notify, python-
pysqlite2, python-dbus, python-gconf.

There is a true lack of such an application in many distributions,
including Ubuntu, and we feel that the goal of simplicity we had in
making Dieu is one that complements Ubuntu's and GNOME's quite well.

Our latest release is 0.5.5 and can be downloaded here:
