The 0.52 release you packaged is great, thank you!!!

I have been testing if for awhile now, and it seems very stable. I was getting crashes at first and was trying to track it down, but turned out I had a corrupted auto completion history, so other applications were crashing too. Once I cleared that I haven't had an issue since.

I would recommend a modification to the tasks plugin though, to make it much more usable on our small screens. The "close" button is not needed in hildon anyway, and it and the help button take up a lot of precious space, so I removed them both from my install and am pleased with the results.

So instead of the code:

Code:
Dialog.__init__(self, plugin.ui, _('Task List'), # T: dialog title buttons=gtk.BUTTONS_CLOSE, help=':Plugins:Task List',	defaultwindowsize=defaultsize )

Code:
if ui_environment['platform'] == 'maemo':
			Dialog.__init__(self, plugin.ui, _('Task List'), # T: dialog title buttons=None, defaultwindowsize=defaultsize )
		else:
			Dialog.__init__(self, plugin.ui, _('Task List'), # T: dialog title buttons=gtk.BUTTONS_CLOSE, help=':Plugins:Task List', defaultwindowsize=defaultsize )
Someone with an n8x0 may want to check that before we recommend it to the Zim team to be sure it works on the older OS too. I can't remember how my n800 treated dialogs, if you close them by clicking outside them like in hildon then the close button is not needed for them either.

Once again, great work packaging this, it is much appreciated!
