gnome-applets 2.9.1



GNOME Applets are the little programs you run in your panel. Just about
everyone uses a GNOME Applet or two, the package includes applets like
the battery applet, CPU load applet, weather applet and mixer applet.

Stay tuned for more cool things like: day/night differentiation in gweather and
hopefully the inclusion of a CPUFreq monitoring applet. Development has finally
been revitalised. Since we don't have our own mailing list, we are staging a
hostile takeover of gnome-utils-list, which has now become the primary list for
Applets based discussion.

Remember, GNOME 2.9 is the unstable development branch of the GNOME desktop,
work on the stable tree such as bugfixes, translations and documentation should
take place on the gnome-2-8 branch.

Thanks everyone for contributing, especially if I accidently forgot you, and
stay tuned for GNOME Applets 2.9.2 next month!
