[Request]Tomboy, Gpass, Gparted and Gnome PPP

4 little applications can add our funs and efficiency.
Tomboy:

Tomboy is a desktop note-taking application for Linux and Unix. Simple and easy to use, but with potential to help you organize the ideas and information you deal with every day.

Homepage:http://www.beatniksoftware.com/tomboy

Gpass:

The GNOME Password Manager - GPass for short - is a simple application, written for the GNOME 2 desktop, that lets you manage a collection of passwords. The password collection is stored in an encrypted file, protected by a master-password.

Homepage:http://gpass.sourceforge.net/

Gparted:

GParted is a graphical frontend to libparted. Among other features it supports creating, resizing, moving and copying of partitions.

Homepage:http://gparted.sourceforge.net/

Gnome PPP

GNOME PPP is a modem dialup tool designed to integrate nicely into GNOME 2 Desktop Environment. It is very similar to GPPP dialup utility created for GNOME 1 and KDE equivalent, KPPP. Since it is a graphical frontend for the excellent WvDial too, very little knowledge is needed to setup a dialup connection using GNOME PPP. It features ease of use, HIG dialogs, auto detection of your modem and connection monitoring. It is distributed under GPL, version 2, so you can download it and use it for free (free as in freedom, not as in free beer:)

I really appreciate.

Tomboy needs dbus-sharp as a dep.
gnome-ppp is really nice and based wvdial, hope they soon add volume accounting and rules so we can know WhatWePay(TM)
