Kate, All,

	I don't know how to do it, but this sure seems like the perfect topic for some
type of collaboration tool that would allow all comments for the proposed
toplevel menus and submenus to be hosted somewhere. I envision something, for
lack of better words, like a spreadsheet laid out something similar to the
following:

MENU    ALT NAME    PROS    CONS    VOTES    (WHATEVER)
------  ----------  ------  -----   ------

where the current proposal of applications-kmenuedit.menu (or whatever the
filename is) can be dumped and made web accessible in some wiki/blog or other
interactive format to facilitate collaboration in a way that is better than
trying to keep track of a string of emails.

	I don't know how much work that would be, or if it is worth doing, but it just
seems like it would make it easier to collect and analyze the great input and
feedback that this thread has produced. Anybody know of a quick way to set
something like this up? Doesn't seem like space or bandwidth would be an issue
with something of this scope.

	Just a thought to try and capture this information in a way that would help
boil it down to what will be implemented and help offload some of the work on
Kate... who I presume is the one that is collecting all the comments and thoughts.
