"gpe-appmgr2" has now been uploaded into the feed; this isn't the direct
gtk2 port of gpe-appmgr, it's the "appmgr-alpha" I've been harping on
about on IRC ;)

Code is at http://handhelds.org/~mibus/

Features:
 * new bugs ;)
 * improved
 * faster load times
 * instant handling of rotation, yay

Ok the thing is I'm busy for the next week or so; so I'm not going to be
very interested in:
 * you should do [X] to make it look better
 * i cant get it to work, waaaa
 * GOB is evil
 * The right-click menu is gone...
 * when i drag away from an item its still highlighted...
 * "Depends" aren't listed in the ipkg!
 * I'd like to report a bug...

That's right people, no bug reports thanks ;)

(Not yet anyway :)

Actually, that's not true. What I _would_ like to hear is:
 * whether the missing-tabs thing happens or not for people it normally
happens for
 * how much it's eyecandy has improved someone's life
 * how incredibly sexy and intelligent and cool I obviously am ;)

[As it happens, it's not even guaranteed to start... I've been told that
it segfaults straight away (for one person ;). I'll look into it...]
