I think everything exists in the specification, but someone not familiar with it will never know where to start. Add to that the fact that in Debian, we have one menu per desktop environment, which is something that has been standardized only very recently (and maybe not entirely). > I'd be curious to hear the opinion of the desktop > environment maintainers on what we should tell maintainers of packages > like fvwm who want to integrate with desktop entries. I think we should ask the parties interested in cheap XDG menu support to package that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xdg-menu and get rid of the Debian menu this way. -- .''`.
