Description Joe Sapp (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-23 03:12:16 UTC 
gDesklets desklets that aren't listed on http://gdesklets.de indicate they aren't being actively maintained.  I can't maintain them all, so I will be requesting removal in 30 days.  These include:

x11-plugins/desklet-discreetclock
x11-plugins/desklet-regexp
x11-plugins/desklet-rssgrab
x11-plugins/desklet-rsstickerbar
x11-plugins/desklet-scweather
x11-plugins/desklet-sidecandy
x11-plugins/desklet-sidecandygmail
x11-plugins/desklet-sidecandyrhythmbox

The following have made their way into the upstream core package.  Unless there's a reason to keep 0.35.4 around, I'd like them both gone in 30 days too.

x11-plugins/desklet-calendar
x11-plugins/desklet-clock

The plan is to add desklets (soon) that are at least on upstream's website.
