About gnome-applet-netspeed, of it becomes available, go ahead and take it, however I must say I don't like you writing: "if upstream turns out to be dead, as it seems now, I'll retire it.", that seems like a bad policy to me. I maintain many packages where upstream is dead. As long as users find them usefull and they don't break left and right because of dependency changes, why abandon them?

Well, sorry, I did not express myself clearly. I only mean that I have next to none programming skills, so if some serious bugs appear in the applet, I won't be able to fix it. Hopefully it is more clear now.
