The one thing I don't like about KDE is KickOff. So its good Mageia doesn't have it. However I also think that I am left a little wanting by the bare bones menu in Mageia. Mint menu is probably the best alternative launcher I have seen.
I have not worked in KDE or packaging much, would this be hard to bring to Mageia? Interested in seeing what could be done they have implemented in mint menu in KDE so it could be ported largely and just require updating paths etc and a little Mageiarization to give it the Magiea groove?
