Love being able to click to minimise to the tray tho!
A solution for that needs to be found before this happens, imo

[David Nielsen (davidnielsen-deactivatedaccount)]

I've been looking at this as a means of relearning some programming. However it seems that Tasque uses the notification area icon to also do configuration and display standard About information. As these are not as far as I can tell recommended to have in the Application Indicator entries a proper port would require altering the Tasque UI to move these in there.

I would be interested in what the general guidelines for this would be, I assume work upstream would be the right approach but presenting two different UIs depending on use of AppInd or not seems like a poor choice.

I have submitted a patch to the upsteam bug. Maybe someone could rebuild the package with this patch applied in the meantime?
