So now that drapes has been out for like a couple days a couple things have happened. Number one, I got lots of support requests, people find various ways of breaking drapes that I never thought of… and I love it, keep sending me bug reports and I’ll keep fixing everything to make sure drapes 0.5.0 is rock solid. I’ve got lots of positive feedback from people saying they love drapes and they were waiting for an application for gnome like this for years; that’s awesome to hear. Some people have blogged out it and also spread the word on foreign language forums; while I can’t read most of them it’s awesome seeing people who are saying good things about it (I hope:) ). Gnomedesktop.org wrote about drapes so I’m sure that’s where a lot of the traffic is coming from, check out the story. On gnomefiles.com drapes so far has a 9.4 user rating which is awesome, I hope drapes ends up on the list of best rated apps. And Jorge tells me that he showed off drapes at Ubucon; Rock on!
Here’s what has been fixed the 0.4.96 release:
- A complete Korean translation has been written by at atie (drapes just looks cool in Korean).
- James finished of the entire French translation, which was only 25% done after adding ALL the strings.
- The translations actually show up, since there was a bug preventing them from showing up properly.
- The deb package is now a universal deb package that runs on all archs that can run mono.
- Some missing dependencies have been fixed.
Some know issues:
- The help button dosen’t work, due to the fact that the help file isn’t written.
- We are lacking an Icon.
- The tmp icon doesn’t have transparent background on transparent panels.
I’m working hard on resolving these and other issues that remain, some trivial and some just odd. I’ll keep you guys posted.

Hi Milosz,
I was just thinking to an icon for your app; I’ve seen you were looking for one on #tango, but I had no time to talk with you.
Mail me if you’re intrested
