The new GLEP is short on how to actually implement these changes. What is the implementation plan for the *box-es, kde, xfce, etc. ? Gnome should be fairly trivial to adapt at this point. What is the plan regarding .desktop items, most of the current items are based on slightly older desktop spec. Do we plan to support those as well (the reference library implementations [12] & [13] don't handle them completely correct afaik) ? Also there are quite a few apps that use so called legacy .desktop files -the menu spec can handle those-, but is that what we want (i'd say yes)? In general i pretty much agree with what is stated in this revision, only the part about portage commands is a bit unclear, domenu & doicon should be functions for the few apps that do not create entries themselves. This happens almost never. The icon theme i don't really understand. Apps come with their own icons usually, i see no need for a reference (?) gentoo icon set. - foser -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
