--- Begin Message ---Package: debian-policy Version: 3.6.2.2 Severity: wishlist Background: ---------- The menu structure define the list of sections and subsections of the Debian menu system (which are displayed in window-managers menus). The official list is part of the Debian menu subpolicy. This list is a bit outdated, so we are proposing an update. Proposal: -------- Following discussion on debian-policy I am formally proposing the new Debian menu structure devised by Linas Zvirblis to be included in the Debian menu subpolicy. For transitionning from the old structure, the translate_menus system will be reused. What should you do: ------------------ --- As a packages maintainer: check whether your menu entry fit in the new structure. --- As a translator: check whether the new names are easier to understand and translate. --- As a Debian user: check whether the new structure improve the Debian menu system. Thanks in advance for all your suggestions for improvement. Please send them to this buglog so we find them. Please find in attachment: ------------------------- 1) The proposed new menu structure 2) The translate_menus file. To experiment with the new menu structure, copy this file to /etc/menu-methods/ and rerun update-menus, the new menu structure will be in effect as far as renaming of section are concerned (this will not add/remove new sections by itself). Note that this is English only until menu is translated (which will happen as soon as the new structure is finalised and official). Summary of changes: ------------------ 1) Removed section: Apps/Tools Games/Sports Screen/Root-window 2) Renamed sections: Applications [was:Apps] Educational [was:Education] HAM Radio [was:Hamradio] Mathematical [was:Math] Network [was:Net] Scientific [was:Science] System/Administration [was:Admin] System/Language Environment [was:Language-Environment] Terminal Emulators [was:XShells] Games Blocks [was:Tetris-like] Screen Saving [was:Save] Locking [was:Lock] Window Managers [was:WindowManagers] Modules [was:WindowManagers/Modules] 3) New sections: Applications [was:Apps] Accessibility [new] Data Management [new] File Management [new] Mobile Devices [new] Network [was:Net] Network/Communication [new] Network/File Transfer [new] Network/Monitoring [new] Network/Web Browsing [new] Network/Web News [new] Office [new] Project Management [new] System System/Hardware [new] System/Monitoring [new] System/Package Management [new] System/Security [new] Technical Technical/Electronics [new] Technical/Engineering [new] TV and Radio [new] Video [new] Web Development [new] Games Tools [new] Acknowledgement: --------------- This new structure was devised by Linas Zvirblis with input from the debian-policy mailing list.
