Can anyone explain the deal with the GNOME sticky notes applet and its disappearance in Fedora 12? There's a blanket comment in the release notes of its being replaced by gnote, but IMHO they're different beasts. This is not helped by the fact that the so-called sticky-notes-importer plugin for gnote doesn't (well, didn't for me or my wife's notes). The GNOME guys, a few years back, apparently decided that stickynotes ought to be deprecated in favour of TomBoy, as SN replicated some of TB's functionality, but gnote still isn't, AFAIK, a full-functionality replacement for TomBoy, and since there *are* aspects of stickynotes that aren't replicated¹ (again, AFAICS) by gnote, the whole thing seems a bit premature. I do also use a 'proper' notes app. (tuxcards, as it happens, for it's ability to encrypt pages - does gnote?), so can't understand the argument that the one app. can do both jobs. Looking at the RPMs now, it doesn't even look as if GNOME have formally deprecated it yet; the removal is uniquely part of the Fedora RPMs. ¹ - like being able to have important but short-life-span notes in your face on the desktop. -- [neil@fnx ~]# rm -f .signature [neil@fnx ~]# ls -l .signature ls: .signature: No such file or directory [neil@fnx ~]# exit -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
