    Well, i never used GMenu, so i can't compare them, but MenuCache
    works pretty much as GMenu do.
    You have to contact PCMan, the author of PCManFm, LxPanel and
    MenuCache for more info (pcman.tw <http://pcman.tw>(at)gmail.com

    Thank you for your work, i won't use some UI elements like the
    PopOver or other Granite widgets, so i will look just a bit like
    slingshot.

    Thank you a lot again, keep up the good work on Elementary!

        Hey Stephen,

        That sounds awesome 😊 Slingshot is definitely GPL and we'd
        love it if you can benefit from our code.

        Is there any big benefit to using Menu-Cache over GMenu that
        maybe we should look into?

            Hi everybody, i'm Stephen Smally, and i work for the
            Lubuntu team (i'm d
            eveloping Lubuntu Software Center and some other stuffs
            which you may ha
            ve heard).
            I'm also trying to rewrite LxLauncher (here a pic of the
            old one http://
            wiki.lxde.org/fr/images/5/5c/LXlauncher.png
            <http://wiki.lxde.org/fr/images/5/5c/LXlauncher.png> ) in
            Vala. I used Slingshot
            as inspiration, so now my LxLauncher version works
            basically like it (on
            ly the UI is different).
            I'm wondering if i can take the Slingshot code, modify it
            to work on LXD
            E (remove Granite dependencie and replace GMenu with
            Menu-Cache, and mod
            ify a little the UI, i probably need it fullscreen-only)
            and release it
            like LxLauncher (i think is GPL), with all the quotes and
            thanks.
            What i'm trying to do is to "port" a little bit of the
            elementary philos
            ophy in LXDE.

            Regards, Stephen Smally

            P.S. Sorry for my bad English!
