The best thing to do is, since you're a dd, bring this up on the debian-devel mailing list, and see about proposing a policy manual change (or if you don't want to deal with that, post ond d-d and ask if someone else will do the necessary stuff for that). I agree with you that this change, without a corresponding change in Debian Policy, is a bad thing. AIUI the Debian Menu was supposed deal with the menu issue once-and-for-all. Unfortunately freedesktop.org kind of trumped it, probably because the gnome people did things the gnome way. -- And that's my crabbing done for the day. Got it out of the way early, now I have the rest of the afternoon to sniff fragrant tea-roses or strangle cute bunnies or something. -- Michael Devore GnuPG Key Fingerprint 86 F5 81 A5 D4 2E 1F 1C http://gnupg.org No more sea shells: Daniel's Weblog http://cshore.wordpress.com
