Hi all,,
Hi!
before two weeks, a discussion started in ambassadors mailing-list
about a
work around to deliver the important notifications to the fedora desktop
(whatever the desktop is).
after some discussion, we started with some guide lines & putted them on
the wiki:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_notifications_system
Reading this - I'm not sure all Fedora notifications should go through system
notification system. Why? I understand it for urgent/priority notification like
"Close your desktop, nuclear war out there" (or just a security update combined
with some steps how to fix it). But I hope it should work for a lot of things
like Fedora elections etc. - this should for example go to your calendar, some
tips how to use Fedora (just a RSS feed like Plasma widget?) etc.

Continuing, I created an early prototype i want people to check &
gives
feedbacks about it.
you can reach it through gitweb:
http://fedorapeople.org/gitweb?p=megenius/public_git/fns.git;a=summary
or, you can grab your own clone from the git repo:
git://fedorapeople.org/megenius/fns.git
keep in mind that last_check file should be writeable by the world, & you
should change its value to an earlier date, so you can see some
notifications.
