Understanding Canonical's new Linux notification system

,----[ Quote ]
| Canonical, the company behind the popular Ubuntu Linux distribution, has 
| announced plans to overhaul desktop notifications. The project is part of a 
| broader initiative that the company launched earlier this year to boost the 
| usability of the Linux software ecosystem.   
| 
| Transient visual notifications are employed extensively in desktop 
| applications to provide users with passive updates about application status 
| or system events. Some typical usage scenarios include notifying users when 
| they receive new e-mail, when an instant messaging buddy signs online, or 
| when a CD finishes burning.

| Let’s talk about notifications! As Ryan Lortie mentioned, there was a lot of
| discussion across the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, GNOME, KDE and Mozilla communities
| represented at UDS about the proposals Canonical’s user experience design and
| desktop experience engineering teams have made for Ubuntu 9.04.
