I am not an expert in the area of Applets, but making it strictly a Gnome applet would restrict its usage to Gnome. So if I wanted to run it under xfce4 or some other Window Manager, the applet would need re-written for each window-manager implementation. The notification (icon box) area is a standard that is usable regardless of WM (or it should be). Even though it is technically a gnome application, making it as portable as possible is a good thing.
Hope that answers your question. -Seth On 3/6/07, Bash0rman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
It's called NetworkManager Applet so why is it not implemented as Gnome Applet? _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
