I have been reading version-0.9 of the menu spec. The latest version of the spec is 1.0-draft-1 so I need to go figure out what changed. Of course that is assuming that gnome-menus-2.10.1 follows the latest version of the spec.
My "fall back" position is to reinstall gnome-menus-2.10.0, built from the previous tarball and patched to support the gnome-menu-editor-0.1. I have tested this out and it works just fine.
