One task I believe the desktop group in Debian should look at and work to improve, is to ensure the Debian desktop give the user a complete and consistent menu in KDE and Gnome. Gnome do not present the debian menu system, and only present the XDG menu entries, while KDE present both.
All desktop environment in Debian provide menu sections, and some applications are placed in unexpected and strange sections. For Debian Edu I have spent some time asking maintainers to move their menu entries into more sensible sections and to add .desktop files to their packages, and this work make me believe a similar effort is needed for the rest of the packages in Debian too. Is this something the desktop group is interested in working on? It would mean to install the various desktop variants in Debian, fill it with user applications and have a look at the resulting menu structure. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
