I think this is worth considering, even more importantly because gnote 
0.8 has a GTK 3 port. That said, gnote will pull the gtkmm packages, and 
I haven't checked yet, if other packages are already pulling that in.
If not, we have to weigh that against the mono-* runtime size to be fair.

What would also help to decide this, is some kind of feature matrix for 
tomboy and gnote and knowing if there is a smooth upgrade path from 
tomboy to gnote.

Btw, one reason, why tomboy is part of gnome, is that in GNOME 3.0 it's 
a featured app [2], in 3.2 this is no longer the case.

Cheers,
Michael
