Description
When I started the manager, it showed "Retrieving notices...", even though it was definitely not retrieving anything: the manager wasn't connected to any client.
Then I connected to an old remote client that doesn't support notices. The tab still showed "Retrieving notices...". I think the tab should show a gray background (instead of white) and show a message saying it's not supported.

Notices are retrieved from external RSS-Feeds by the manager, even if not connected to a client. It should be supported by now.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
It tried to reach the Berkeley server, but the address is non-existent (as far as I have checked). I am looking into disabling this code for my own builds, but it's not as easy as it looks. Comment out what the devs say and the manager won't build... or it will build but won't run, exits with error 0xc5, also had that one.
So keeping an eye on this. Do know that the Manager in trunk is for the next client. Well, who am I telling. ;)
