Am I the only one experiencing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/237986 ?
That notwithstanding, Tomboy has changed my life.

It specially makes sense since it's a major attractor for people to
FOSS.  I've used it to get several people started on Linux who
originally just wanted office productivity software.  I see a lot of
primary and secondary schools getting their kids into using presentation
software -- for better or worse, being able to offer it, in a form that
is compatible with Teacher's system, is a good thing.
