Xpad Sticky Notes

Xpad is a sticky notes application written in GTK+ 2.0. It is a simple little application which can be used to help you remember important stuff. I really like Xpad, mainly because it does exactly what I would expect it to do, without suffering from feature bloat; it is an ideal utility for my Openbox based systems.

Xpad Stick Notes running on CrunchBang Linux.

The current version of Xpad available from the Ubuntu Hardy repositories [2.13] suffers from a rather drastic 100% CPU bug; therefore, I have updated the package to the latest 2.14 release and uploaded it to the CrunchBang Linux repositories. I have also filed a small bug report on Launchpad and I am looking for a mentor to help me update the package; I understand it is a busy/hectic time for Ubuntu developers at the moment, so I will not hold my breath while I wait for a reply :)
