As for why it was made on Ark. Currently trinity doesn't work well on my primary machines. I use extremely complicated machines and it seems to mess up most distros. Ark & vector are the first and currently still the only distros that can run everything perfectly. No offense to anyone, these machines are old school, new tech monsters.
Also, it was only intended as a mock up example. I expected it would be tweaked, refined, adapted etc to fit each distros that have adopted Trinity (which is growing everyday w00t).
I hope that answers everything and I hope its useful.

Sorry there was a read me but I failed to attach it. Its just a mock to show what a kmenu could be like. Categories etc. Focused categories make it easier for people to search for an app. For example, avidemux would be find in Multimedia/video/editing.
A focused menu keeps kmenu from eating the entire screen as well.

@Serghei Yes, I quite agree. I do try to remember to bottom post. There are, however, some people that no matter how many times you tell them, they always top-post.
@Rob You were complaining before in another thread that the top posting was messing with your Gmail. I was trying to point out that with the default, it can sometimes be hard to remember to bottom-post until the habbit is formed.
I have had trouble with Fedora as well. As for Debian, while the core system does seem stable, I've had trouble with the DE's (KDE 3 Official, KDE4, Trinity KDE, and GNOME are the ones I've tried). I am in the process of setting up my only spare desktop as a personal Ark Linux build server to get my Trinity packages going. It's going to be troublesome considering our man on top can't seem to get the dependency mess in dockyard-devel straightened out (even after manually downloading and installing Zypper and it's deps and adding the repos, it'd constantly complaining of different programs being compiled with different versions of the same library, I think the current problem is with libpng).
@Tim As a suggestions, perhaps setup the mailing list to put something like a header saying "Please post replies below the footer to keep things organized" and a footer saying "Please reply below here to keep things organized" on every message coming through the mailing list? It's what we do with the Ark Linux mailing list (at least with the footer). Perhaps make it bold so people won't miss it (of course, some people disable HTML in their email clients, so the bold may just get in the way).
