Being a big Tomboy fan I'm wondering if this supports or will support
the cool wiki like note interlinking that makes Tomboy so useful.

Well, as a first shot I didn't plan for this. Right now Daze is partially a tracker tech demo.

I was thinking about reusing the html/rich text widget from the GnomeBlog panel applet, and then simply
ingesting the tomboy note files into tracker and use that. If somebody then wrote a tracker "backend" for tomboy everything would be fine and dandy...

My problem with exanding features is that Daze needs to be loading up really fast, since you start a new instance each time you activate it. Adding custom widgets, and thus lots of more code for Python to parse, might be a problematic in this regard... Only testing will tell...

Cheers,
