I'm not a fan of too much advertisement but it could be a good idea. One
need to create a new applet, like the gnome-about one. As it is a
ditribution-specific and non-essential applet it would be in a separate
pkg, like gnome-about.

I personnaly have no time to code this, but one may have.

Reassigning to wnpp to allow someone to create a new pkg for it.
