Basically, it works like this: I don't want to continue shipping applets that are "unsupported piece of crap" because they don't fit in with my grand vision of "a completely rocking desktop".

If you can stop looking like geyes came out of the middle ages, I'm perfectly happy to keep shipping it. We've never claimed to be a professional desktop, so it's always nice to ship an easter egg or two. > I'd love to ask the same thing about Wanda (Fish), but that's part of > gnome-panel...
