Thank you for producing this application and for releasing as open source.
I'm all for rolling up my sleeves and diving into the source, but thought
I'd check the best approach to ensure effort is not duplicated.

What I'm trying to achieve is to avoid having GV sms delivered to my
cellphone, whilst I'm sitting at my desktop where I can read and reply to
them easily. 

Currently I can achieve this via about 4 clicks thru the GV web
application, but I'm looking for a way to automate it via the screensaver.

Firstly, from looking at the webpage headers, and as is standard, the
status change for forwarding SMS is POSTed. Are there already other POSTing
methods in the source that I can utilize?

Secondly, as I understand, their is no inbuilt screensaver notifications in
java, so (on Windows) I'd need to poll the screensaver via JNI to user32. 
This would cause a system dependency that you may choose not to feed back
into your source.

Thirdly, on a different topic, as this is not an officially supported
Google API, I thought it might be better for the inner workings of the
notifier to be in a seperate .jar that is hosted rather than installed,
thus making fixing of the inevitable API changes transparent to end users.

Regards, Jake

I have downloaded version 1.3. I am looking forward to version 1.4 because I am 
off 
to reading in full screen mode and some notifications like Skype will punch 
through 
Microsoft reader in full screen and some will not. In Windows 7 you have some 
control 
over notifications, might not go with the distinction I just mentioned.

Ideally, the perfect notifier would bubble up the entire message, ding, and 
allow you 
to click and you're on the bubble so as to enter a SMS text conversation.

I am not familiar as to where I am posting LOL so I have to figure out how to 
get on 
the e-mail list.
