Hi.
I´m just wanna ask, why we have Tomboy when it consumes roughly three times what Gnote[1] requires in terms of memory[2] and it´s slower than Gnote? What about start thinking about replacing Tomboy by Gnote?

I for one see no reason to replace something that works brilliantly. Tomboy is very well featured and is under constant improvement. If you feel it is badly performing then please file a bug about it. I'm kind of getting a bit fed up with this constant "replace existing mono app with non-mono". I'll be completely honest here, I LOVE all the mono apps out there, I have had absolutely no problems with any of them, and the devs are very approachable and helpful. Rather than look at replacing something that still leads the pack with something less featured, let's try and improve it. File bugs, test releases etc. Ratislav, sorry if this seems aggressive but in all honesty what's the point? Something as trivial and fixable as memory consumption is by no means a reason to replace. Sandy and the other Tomboy devs put a crap load of time and effort into the product, and it works brilliantly across all seven of my machines. I can even remotely sync my Tomboy notes across all machines and my mobile phones. Please let's be rationale about this and look at improving rather than just abandoning. Do that will make the product better, and show we have a spine and soul for the whole open source game. We need to innovate again, not become a sheep and follow others. We introduced Tomboy and by golly we should stand by it!! Again apologies if this comes across as hot headed but enough is enough. Regards, Andy -- Andrew Wafaa IRC: FunkyPenguin.
