Sorry I hadn't read the proposal in detail.
So if I understand correctly, if a regular X11 application emits a
gi.repository.Notification, it will display correctly in Sugar?
That's great, kudos on the work.

Hello Sebastian,
The notification back-end is already a subset of freedesktop
notification definition. That is something we had in Sugar since a
long time. We just added some other missing parts (displaying subject
and body).
But, for the front-end, If you look at Gary's design, you will see
that is not the typical independent bubble UI component, as it groups
notifications according to some context (ie., when is an activity).
So, the motivation behind this method is (as you also suggest) to add
some sugar syntax to facilitate its usage for activity developers.
Having explained that, any recommendation for the name? :)
Saludos!

Hi Martin,
What about using this:
https://developer.gnome.org/notification-spec/ ?
I really think we should be moving towards FreeDesktop standards
instead of rolling our own.
Currently it would look like this, or you can add some syntax sugar
to it:
#!/usr/bin/python
from gi.repository import Notify
Notify.init ("Hello world")
Hello=Notify.Notification.new ("Hello world","This is an example
notification.","dialog-information")
Hello.show ()

Hello Everyone,
We recently landed a messages notifications feature, based on
Gary's designs [1]. One of our GCI 2013 hackers, Sam Parkinson, is
has sent the bits to enable activities to send notifications too,
as in Gary's design.
His work is almost done [2,3,4], but it introduces a new method to
the base Activity class, therefore I wanted your opinions regarding
the name of this method, the current options are [4]:
* send_notification
* add_notification
* shell_notify
* sugar_notify
Thanks for your time!
tch.
