Oook then we put Screenshots back into the menu.. ( even if i dont get
the problem with media.. as media also means screenshots )..

About Download.. ahm.. nobody really downloads rb from the page.. if
someone compiles it, then he/she will surely go for the cvs and
otherwise he/she will fire up synaptics or their yast and download it
this way.. so i really think download is NOT that important.. ( not as
important as to clutter a perfectly clean menu )

Idea 5 in my taste ist just plain boring.....

For the solution.. i think the best way for choosing is asking many ppl
and right now it seems most prefer idea2 .... i'll see how it develops
before deciding what to use.
