	I have spent hours fucking around with it and have yet to get it to
work the way I would expect.  I have been told that I will need to edit
files to add applications to the menu in a place other than the "personal"
area.

	I can't get it to add another menu to the taskbar, I can't get it to
add an application to another appliation area.  

	I've had KDE running on my machine far longer than GNOME.  I figured
out the GNOME stuff without reading any docs, I just "Bambied" it and was
able to achieve what I wanted.  KDE was NOT intuitive for me at all.


	I am running the 1.1pre1 release.  1.1pre2 bombed on my machine and
1.1 final changed a bunch of menus and packages and such

	I'm not sure who's dumber, me or the design.

	The jury is still out...
