[Evolution-hackers] "Panel notification for new mail" bounty

[Jan Krčál <jan krcal atlas cz>]

Hello,

I would like to try do this task, but I've got some questions before I 
actually start coding...

First of all, is it still actual? And is there no deadline? Well, I can 
see, that this bounty is open, but in the discussion about that bug 
several people (few months ago) stated they'll try it, one of them even 
said he's finished it... Should I understand it so that their patches 
were not accepted?

And some questions to the bounty description which is not very clear for me:

Should it be a system tray icon or an applet?
Should it be a bonobo component (as being started from 
mail-component-factory.c)?
What means that the applet should be "configurable in the usual manner"?

Thanks,
Jan Krcal
