OK,

	I have started the page:

http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Developers/ProposedSystemMenuLayout

but I must admit "wiki markup HATES me". I have included the toplevel and a
couple of thoughts under each (hoping that would help the TOC straighten itself
out), but for some reason the wiki wasn't accepting the standard section level
designations of '==' and '===' and so on. (Lord knows it was probably my fault,
but I was looking at a wiki markup reference and it still wasn't working...) I
have found I'm much better at editing or adding to an existing wiki rather than
starting one from scratch.

The outline is supposed to be:

==Trinity Kmenu Standardization Proposal==
==Current Summary==
===Desktop Publishing===
===Development===
===Edutainment & Health===
===Emulators===
===Games===
===Graphics===
===Lost & Found===
===Multimedia===
===Network===
===Settings===
===System===
===User-Apps===
==Kmenu source files and inclusion order==

but as you can see, the wiki is eating a few of the '==' entries and failing to
recognize the '===' markup. If someone smarter than I on wiki markup can tweak
it, it would be appreciated.

At any rate, the page is there. If we can get the summarized information from
the kmail thread in there, then I think we can pick up the collaboration on the
wiki instead of in a string of emails to capture the thoughts and ideas in a
single location.

Since I didn't start the thread, I felt awkward providing the summary for the
menu entries and I didn't want to 'step on anyones toes' by doing it.

Kate, since I'm following your lead here, I don't want to usurp your effort and
I'd feel better if you put your current thoughts in as a starting point.
