Edubuntu is based on GNOME so it works there too. Everything not GNOME or KDE is left out in the cold, I suppose. But perhaps someone wants to implement the specification in a panel plugin for Xfce.<br> <br>Ignoring applications that use the spec will be hard, I think, because Ubuntu is working to convert all applications in its repo's, which we also use. Nor would I consider this tray icon such a deal-breaker that a whole application is excluded in advance.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><font color="#888888"> <br> - Eero<br> </font><div><div></div><div class="h5"><br> --<br> xubuntu-devel mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a><br> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a><br> </div></div></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Vincent<br>
