Hi, I've been lurking on the java lists for about a week and have found the 
discussions very useful. At the same time I've been writing a little applet
and wanted to get some opinions on what I'm doing.

The applet i've written is called ExtraMenuApp and what it does is add a menu 
to the hotjava menu bar. The items in this menu all go to a URL of some kind 
when they are selected. See http://www.uts.edu.au/~mpf/java/extramenu.html for
further details.

What I would like to know is:
	- Is it a bad idea adding extra menus to a browsers menu bar?
	- Is this likely to break with future releases of hotjava?
	- What other uses can people see for this other than the basic 
	  bookmark style menu I've implemented at the moment?

I look forward to your comments.

Matthew
