So is this going to be part of Gnome?

Unlike the average blogger or for what passes for technology laypress on the internet, I'm not inclined to broadcast private off-the-record comments into public as fact by quoting anonymous sources. I require someone to go on record publicly or I need to find a public archive that answers the question that I can cite as a source. Its called sourcing your information. Something journalists used to be required to do when the words journalistic and integrity were used in close proximity in the same sentence.

I ask the questions here, because the track record with regard to factual information from quoted sources in the articles is very good here.

I also know that the readership includes people with the information I'm requesting...because some of them have responded to me in the past here.

I also know the subscribed readership here is somewhat discerning and would never let me get away with "anonymous sources tell me..." when making a critical claim with regard to Canonical's action.

You want me to shut up about it? Help me find someone who will stick their neck out and go on record with a public summary of the discussion of libappindicator at the hackfest.
