Well, as long as there isn't many activity, in order not to forget this 
idea. I'll send it to you. It's an usability one, I think.

Do you know the little dog that appears in Windows XP when doing a 
search... or the clippo assistant in Microsoft Office?

Why don't we have a Tux assistant at the bottom-right that detects in the 
background which is the app which has the focus and gives up tips 
constantly,... and at the same time you can ask Tux questions.

Of course... A new help format should be designed for this assistant. And 
each program will have its own Tuxassistant help pages, something similar 
to man webpages.

Tux Messages will be transparent in order to avoid nuissance and when you 
go to the bottom-left orange point... the message is completely opaque in 
order to read it.

Tux assistant will work in the desktop as an item of the pannel.

I'm inspired because of: http://toastytech.com/guis/bob.html
