RE: [discuss] System Tray Menu

As Philippe mentioned, the .bmp files (and in fact, the code) under
gui/native/win are not used.  The code for the dll that has the in-use
system tray (LimeWire20.dll) is under gui/native/notify/win.  It's very old
stuff, untouched in over 3 years.  

If you'd like permission to use the .bmps, I believe you'll have to ask
Philippe about that.  He likely contributed them with the other code at
gui/native/win.

The CC integration is neat stuff -- we added it with much help from Mike
Linksvayer ( http://creativecommons.org/about/people#21 ) who gave great
details and advice on what a CC application should do.  You currently _can_
search for CC files, but won't find much (if anything at all) until the rest
of the network upgrades (and starts sharing CC files).  You can do this
search by choosing 'Audio', 'More Options', and then 'Creative Commons' from
the 'License Type' dropdown box.  If you're interested in the code, it's
mostly in the core module, under com/limegroup/gnutella/licenses.  The
GUI-side is all under com/limegroup/gnutella/gui/LicenseWindow.java in the
gui module.

Thanks,
 Sam
