Application Menu Status for 7 July

Hi everyone,

Another week, another release of the new menu for UNE. This week indicator-appmenu did not have any releases, as the bugs reported have been in appmenu-gtk. Cody Russell has released 0.1.1 of appmenu-gtk, which is in Maverick and currently building for the Lucid PPA. Here are the highlights:

- Bullets should now appear as bullets instead of checkmarks
- Fix errors in GIMP

Full changelogs: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/appmenu-gtk/0.1.1-0ubuntu1

Note that if you are using Unity that there is a mutter bug that breaks submenus that might be confused for an appmenu bug, please see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/592949

The menu itself is in pretty good shape right now, unless someone has any objections we’d like to turn the double menus off in the applications for next week’s release. Special thanks to Hernando Torque for his detailed bug reporting for the menus!
