I don't think it needs to be that hard. We just need a central > "app registry" system. Hi! I was more thinking of the fact that we would have to write menu control-files (or what they would be called) for every app we have that would make sence being put in a menu. Also we have to figure out how we would do this in the best way, I'm personally not a fan of Debians "Debian"-menu that show up under every category. I think that many users might find it confusing to have something like: Mainmenu Apps ... Graphics Internet ... Debian Apps ... Graphics Internet ... With all apps showing up in the Debian submenu and only the GNOME (for example) apps showing up in the first categories.
