Does anyone know if there are any applications other than the default ones that can be integrated into the homescreen feed. I really hate the twitter and facebook default applications. They are laggy and slow.

Is it even possible for 3rd party applications to be integrated into the system right now?
like wazzap availability/chat options in messaging and contacts.
FMobi as the default facebook application?
Tweetian as the default twitter application?
or is that stuff only possible when we have the source code of Meego Harmattan?
I'm not being ungrateful or anything but if status menu extensions can be done, then could this be done too?

This can be done without sources since N9 was released.
3rd part developers of apps like Tweetian, fMobi etc., must implement it, so drop them an email or something.

To create a notification you need this:

http://harmattan-dev.nokia.com/docs/...ification.html

Here an example:

Code:
#include <MNotification>

MNotification notification("x-nokia.messaging.im");
notification.setSummary(SUMMARY-TEXT);
notification.setBody(BODY-TEXT);
notification.setImage(ICON-PATH);
notification.setIdentifier(IDENTIFIER); //Optional
notification.publish(); //To show the notification
Probably you want execute an action when you click on the event.
Then you have to add the following code:

Code:
MRemoteAction opAction(DBUS-COMMAND);
notification.setAction(opAction);

I've written the RSS To Events which publishes stuff in the feed. Also, MeeGoSquare does the same.

Yes. It's documented in "Integrating event feed into applications".

No. No hacking is needed; all the necessary information is in the Harmattan Developer Library.

As far as I understood he wasn't asking about notifications but the events feed. There's a really simple convenience C++ API (the MEventFeed class) for this. There are multiple ways to schedule updates to the feed. One of the best ways is to register as a home screen event publisher by creating a D-Bus service for your publisher application and then registering it with the following D-Bus call:

Service: com.nokia.home.EventFeed
Path: /eventfeed
Interface: com.nokia.home.EventFeed
Method: addRefreshAction
Arguments: "your.publisher.service.name /your/publisher/service/path your.publisher.service.interface.publishEvents"

I suppose you're talking about Home Screen Settings. This thread is about the integrating applications to the home screen feed. Home Screen Settings is off-topic here. (No, Home Screen Settings 1.6.0 has not been released in the Store. You can experience it when it's released there. Have patience.)

The new version of Sociality will implement event feed integration.
The API is there, any app can do it.
