Thanks, I'll take a look at that bug for reference. I really don't want to go shaving yaks to get intlclock included, given: * Do we want to make it use PK-gnome, and not the hand-coded stuff that it has now? * PK-gnome is not blessed due to libsexy. * Libsexy is a yak who needs industrial-grade shaving. * etc. So, right now I'm leaning toward this: 1. Get the gnome-panel and gnome-applets patches approved (hi, Vincent and Callum!) :) 2. Use the hand-coded D-Bus code in the clock applet for now. Do a configure-time check for PK; if it's not present, simply disable setting the time altogether (this will make distros notice). 3. Release libgweather, and shave the yaks around module proposal, bugzilla product, etc. 4. Release gnome-panel and gnome-applets with the standalone gweather.
