gnome-panel with xmonad

Is there a document explaining how us GNOME-converts can get all the good bits we once once had as well as the good bits of xmonad?
I'm not GNOME user or expert, just trying to clarify: you launched gnome-panel and it doesn't pick tray icons, right? -- Roman I. Cheplyaka (aka Feuerbach @ IRC)

I have recently been pointed to ManageDocks, so I expect this is what everyone else is doing :) I'll check it out.
ManageDocks is definately the right direction. You almost certainly also want to use Ewmhdesktops; It makes xmonad play much more nicely with gnome panel.
