Hey scifigeek,

afaik Bavarian is working on the Home-Plugin. Since he has much to do, it could take a while. So please be patient!

could you please explain the hack you used? I need to add a menu item in 0.2.2

here it is... it's a plug-in, but more or less it's really a hack.

I know this ,too. THE ONLY thing that´s anoying is that it couldn´t implemented in the basic home screen - because of the dyn.ID - or am I wrong?
