Sorry, no problem. 

Improving the desktop experience with the "Task" and "TaskMonitor" D-Bus

The central idea is to export all information related to a running task
(e.g. a download, a synchronisation, a transcode) and make them
available to other applications. This allows various things like the
removal of many redundant progress dialogues, the contextual display of
progress information and an even more intelligent power management.
