	Well, for starters: 

     	*Mauku     	*Vagalume     	*maemo-recorder (or something with
that functionality)     	*Personal Menu     	*Personal Launcher    
	*PyGTKEditor     	*PyPackager     	*Various "Home Applets" (e.g.,
DiskFreeSize, Display IP, etc.)     	*OMWeather 
	Just to name a few. ;)

 Isn't that the point of featured apps?

 That certainly seems like a good starting point for projects to put
on a
 pedestal.

 Can you help refine the plan a little? How many applications are you
 looking for, max? How do you plan on gathering and organising
feedback,
 or is it up to us to propose and organise something? When will we
know
 we're finished?
 Cheers,
 Dave.
