I was looking at Issue 359 ( http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=359) and using start-up notification was proposed. This seems like a powerful possibility, for example OpenBox uses it for all kinds of stuff ( http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Upgrading_to_3.4#Improved_startup_notification ). I've looked in their code and they use http://cgit.freedesktop.org/startup-notification/. Do you think Haskell bindings would be useful since I would be interested in implementing this as a project? Also, I am not sure if anyone is working on something similar. Best regards, Willem Van Lint

Bindings to this would be very welcome! The bindings themselves
probably belong in a new package, though (rather than xmonad or
xmonad-contrib). I look forward to hearing more about your progress. =)

Please let us know if you start the project, I'd be interested in
contributing code, that is of course if you accept it :)

Thanks for the replies.
I've started looking into it and I'll keep you guys posted on the progress.
