[Sugar-devel] Widget to show a notification message with a link

[Gustavo Duarte]

Unfortunately, this settings on activity.info doesn't work.

Now i'm wonder, where should be the best place to configure these mime
entries, in which point of Sugar session starting procedure ?

Inside sugar-session script, it would be a right place ?

Because this mime types settings is valid only on Sugar desktop, when
the PC switch to Gnome, the mime types should be changed to Firefox.

Thanks in advance.

Gustavo.
