I finally recovered access to my SourceForge account, so I was able to contact the original developer of PopTray about enhancing it. He suggested I should fork the code and create my own base with a new name, and if he likes it he might even add a link from the PopTray homepage.
So now I need to think of a new name for my improved version of PopTray. Better PopTray? PopTrayEx? PopTray Enhanced? PoptrayPlus? Hmmm…Decisions
