Sixth report

I don't have much to report since last week. The Firefox extension start is just about ready for publishing but the Makefile for compiling it won't be pretty and there is not much to see when you install it. I'm contemplating whether to add some kind of user interface to the extension, or if it's acceptable that the only way to see the operation is via the Compiz plugin or debug tools (xprop).

Actually, I got distracted, and hacked the "documents" interface of Gimmie to show the data from the extension. Unfortunately, based on my earlier experiments and the PyGTK documentation, I thought I could get notifications for window property changes, but I seem to be able to get them only as GDK_NOTHINGs. Probably a PyGTK thing, I should ask around.

That's about it. I also followed the discussions on the Compiz mailing list, and updated the project wiki pages on the development environment and on checking out my code, following the transition to Git. I know a demo release of code would be more anticipated.
