TrayHotKey

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I was using Minimize to Tray Revived (MinTrayR), but it kept disabling the close button on Thunderbird (usually after waking up from hibernate). This has the same functionality, but adds the ability to use a hotkey to minimize to tray. As long as this doesn't show the same bug, it will be a perfect replacement.

Update after 3 days...

It's still working perfectly through 3 or 4 hibernate and wakeup cycles and another dozen or so sleep cycles. It's perfect.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.3.5.2.1-signed). 

FireTray

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Great job! I recently dropped KDE 4.3 because there are still too many bugs for me to use it in production (specifically, printing from _all_ KDE apps is now so thoroughly screwed up that KDE no longer is usable for anyone that has something to print--complete regression from the excellent printing system in KDE 3.5).

This gives Iceowl and Icedove the exact features that caused me to use KDE in the first place--quick and easy access to Kontact and Kmail with built-in notifications while they were minimized to the system tray. Thank-you for the great add-on. (Running on a mixed Debian Squeeze/Sid)

My_buuf_deux

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

While the buttons don't exactly match the Buuf Deuce KDE icon set, they are close enough to satisfy. They are definitely a better match for my color scheme than most themes. Thanks for the set!

Signature Switch

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Nice idea and a good start, but it could be easier to use. It needs an option to retrieve program output directly without writing shell scripts to do all the work for it.
