>> > GNOME 3.0 Support
>> >  * Cleanup UI, get rid of dialogs, report messages as notifications
>>
>> If you mean notification bars like gedit has, then I agree.
>
> Absolutely. I'd like to get as much Gnome 3.0 support built in as possible
> for the 1.8.0 release--seeing as how 1.6.0 was our Gnome 3.0 release. Heh.
> It doesn't bother me much, because I won't be seeing Gnome 3.0 on my
> desktop, most likely, until Ubuntu picks it up, but I will definitely have a
> virtual machine with gnome 3.0 for testing in the next week or two.

>>
>> >  * Improve 'undo' functionality (like undo delete)
>> >  * Anything else to leverage GNOME3
>>
>> The big GNOME 3 stuff is:
>> * Getting rid of status icon by default

> https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=632242
>
>>
>> * Helping the gnome-shell team out with jumplists, so the Tomboy menu
>> can be implemented as a jumplist in the shell
>
> I'm really excited about jumplists in gnome-shell. If I have the time, I may
> try to start helping out the gnome-shell team. It's one of the things I like
> most about Tomboy on Windows 7. I think you and I have talked about this one

>> * Keeping in touch with gtk# developers so we can consider moving to gtk3
>
> http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.99/index.html
> That's mostly for my benefit, but in case anyone else wanted to take a look.
> There's a section on migrating from gtk2 to gtk3. I assume that when you say
> "keep in touch" you mean, "patiently await the release of gtk# 3?"

>> > Multimedia
>> >  * Integrate with GNOME Applications better

>>
>> "Attachment support" in Tomboy has been something discussed, never
>> decided upon, and now, ultimately, blocks on figuring out the sync
>
> I have little to no interest in attachments, personally. I just want the
> ability to link to files. If we had to vote, right now, on the future of
> attachments in Tomboy, I would vote no. It just doesn't make any sense to
> me. Tomboy isn't an FTP dropbox. The way I work around this is:
> 1. Use Dropbox
> 2. Have dropbox mounted at the same location on all machines
> 3. Link to files in dropbox
> This goes for stuff I want synchronized, mind you.

>> Of course, I say this still thinking of Tomboy Online as a big

> I'd like to continue development in this vain. I work from multiple
> computers and note synchronization is of extreme importance to me. I prefer
> the idea of using Tomboy Online to Ubuntu One. As much as I like the
> publicity from Ubuntu and U1, I'd prefer to offer another
> service--especially one built on a portable platform (e.g. snowy). Note
> synchronization and tomboy online should be a continued priority for us,
> imho. It will be for me, at the very least. I hope to get more involved with
> Snowy as well in the coming months.

>> > Addin Repository
>> >  * Central place to upload and download Tomboy Addins
>> >  * Integrated into tomboy for easy install
>> >  * This has been a topic for years, any progress on this?
>>
>> No, but the MonoDevelop guys do this, and are approachable.  An easier
>> thing to do might be a tomboy-community-addins project, similar to
>> what Banshee does (also easy guys to talk to).

> I'll happily try to work on sync bugs for U1 and Tomboy Online.

> I wouldn't mind picking this up. Note encryption is something that I would
