Hi Tristan,

Thanks for this new status bar, this is exactly what i've been looking for
xmonad !

A word of warning though, it seems to wakeup a bit too much (and do too much 
work
at wakeup) with the example configuration and make a laptop great for winter
as a hand warmer :-)

I ended up with just the clock widget (setup to update every minute instead of
every second), the system tray, and the logwidget, and the wakeup rate is
completely acceptable, and the cpu time stays low.
