The new shortcut is Ctrl-Q.

It shouldn't appear upon first boot - have to fix that.  The software
updater as currently available from Fedora 11's repos doesn't make
mcuh sense, so it's not included.  I've managed to fail to remove the
first boot software update notification, despite trying :).

Not sure what's happening there, sorry.  I will keep that use case in
mind when testing, but I'd appreciate future testing against future
builds to see a) if it gets fixed; or b) what future errors are.

Sounds like sugar-install-bundle and sugar-shell aren't interacting
the way one would like.

Sounds like something Read Etexts specific - not sure what it could be.

Thanks for the notes.
