Yeah I like freedom. We all like freedom. That's the reason we
participate in Debian. But there should be some standards, cause too
much freedom leads to anarchy ;)

What's the difference between KDE menu entry and application entry?
Sorry for silly question, but I don't use KDE.

Right. Especially because none program uses it already.

Well I've just checked it, and yep... seems that correct location is
/usr/share/applnk/*, but I wonder if other (Gnome especially) desktops
will search that path too.
The problem is that I even don't know exactly how these files are used.
I don't use KDE/Gnome, but I really want to provide those files if it
could help users somehow.
