> Totally wrong No, it's not. Denying reality may be fun, but it's not helpful. I was not talking about what you'd like, but about what notify-osd is aiming at. It is part of project Ayatana, and here's a statement about configurability in that project: http://www.mail-archive.com/ayat...@lists.launchpad.net/msg00747.html

And I don't really care for your engineering background, but thanks for telling me.

Because in fact, it doesn't seem like you did that yet. You're evaluating how notify-osd should change it's design to fit your needs. That's not the same thing. > Oh well, finally we discovered the problem: the others Yes, if you rely on notification daemon specialities, you're doing something wrong. For comparison: Here's what the KDE notification daemon developer (completely unrelated to notify-osd) has to say about how and where Galago notifications may end up in KDE: http://markmail.org/message/hxvahasqoemkuhp5#query:+page:1+mid:ij55nyqffhbf3gvs+state:results http://markmail.org/message/hxvahasqoemkuhp5#query:+page:1+mid:hgigaz6777qubzet+state:results How does a developer know how his notification is going to look or behave? If it's not in-house code, he can't. Thus, he can't rely on presentation, or, in other words, if he needs to rely on presentation, it's not the right infrastructure to use. -- notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390508 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
