From oget.fedora at gmail.com Sun Aug 9 23:26:39 2009 From: oget.fedora at gmail.com (Orcan Ogetbil) Date: Sun, 9 Aug 2009 19:26:39 -0400 Subject: [Fedora-music-list] FedoraStudio: the final step Message-ID: Hello everyone, (If you don't own a multimedia package you can skip this thread) This is a call for help for adjusting the .desktop files of your multimedia applications according to the new FedoraStudio feature [1]. For those who missed the news, with F-12 we will have an optional multimedia-menus package that will subcategorize the Sound&Video menu in Gnome (Multimedia menu in KDE). This package is currently geared towards multimedia creation folks, however this target audience may be expanded in the future to meet the demand. To place the applications in the proper category, the .desktop files need to have proper categories listed. Since I am a (co)maintainer of most audio creation packages in Fedora, I have finished most of the required work. However there are a few packages left that need to be addressed. So please follow the link [2] and check if your multimedia package meets the criteria for any of the submenus we will have. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will do a final check around September 8th, about two weeks before the beta freeze and fix the remaining .desktop files. Also let me know if you don't want your package to be touched. Thanks for your time! Orcan PS: Adjusting your .desktop file with this specification will not change the experience of anyone who doesn't have the multimedia-menus package installed. Your application will be still in the Sound&Video/Multimedia desktop menu as long as you have "AudioVideo" listed as a category in your .desktop file.
