I've released gnome-menu-editor 0.1 [1]. Don't expect anything except a
mockup according to Calum's UI proposals. It aims to be a starting point
for further development. Besides, I've been told that software needs to
be released before being CVS imported which is definitly my primary
target to attract talented hackers :).
