I'm forwarding this message as an FYI. It's pertinent to the discussion
we had a few weeks ago about menu creation, and we'll need to begin
thinking about how we're going to incorporate this new application's
features and functionality. It sounds to me like this is something that
we could utilize in the post-install stage to create FreeBSD-generated
menus, much like Debian and some of the other snazzier Linuces.

Hi,
	Just a heads up - I've imported a new module to CVS - "gnome-menus" -
which will contain the following:

  * libgnome-menu - an implementation[1] of the new menu spec[2]

  * .menu files which define how the menus are laid out

  * .directory files which used to be in gnome-desktop

  * gnome-test-menu-spec - a little test program used for testing the
    implementation against the test suite in freedesktop.org CVS.

	I've also committed a patch to make the panel use libgnome-menu rather
than the "vfolder" gnome-vfs module. I expect we'll be removing the
vfolder module from gnome-vfs fairly soon.

	One thing to note is that in order for your menus to work correctly
you'll now need to set $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS to $(prefix)/etc/xdg.

Cheers,
Mark.
