This allows us to use GtkStatusIcon and to get rid of the eggtrayicon.c code and the alternate packing model it has to use. What distros are people running (if you're using NM 0.7), and what version of GTK does that distro use? Second, I'd like to use the libnotify notification code exclusively and remove the notification dialogs that get used when libnotify is not present. There are some user-interface improvements that I've been thinking of that would use notification bubbles extensively.
On Ubuntu every version since Edgy (October 2006) uses GTK 2.10 or later. Dapper which is a LTS release is supported until 2010 (I think) uses 2.8 but as a LTS release I assume that Canonical/Ubuntu will stick with 0.6.5 and wouldn't backport 0.7.0. If anyone wanted NM 0.7 it makes sense that they are most likely running a more recent distro anyway. Debian uses 2.8 in it's stable release: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libgtk2.0-bin&searchon=names&exact=1&suite=all§ion=all But Lenny and Sid are both at 2.12. I know the Debian Maintainer follows the list so I am sure he will say if there is an issue there.
I don't plan to provide a backport of NM 0.7 for current Debian stable. And the versions for lenny and sid, as Darren said, are recent enough. So from my side I'd say, go for it.
