I fully believe that there should be a "System Option" with which one can specify if you want "Notifications" to repeat or not. When one is busy with your work, you do not have time to continually check your phone for status like "missed reminders" etc. It should be the simplest of things to have such a parameter and anything that sends a notification can act accordingly.

A generic solution for what? I don't see what problem you're having that you think a custom NotificationManager would solve. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- TreKing <http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking> - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
