I'm not actually on this list, but I heard that there was some
discussion of a GNOME dash replacement. If you haven't already, you
might want to take a look at the "foobar" (aka "menu panel"), which is
a part of gnome-panel that was introduced in gnome-core 1.2 or
thereabouts. When I saw it, the first thing I said to myself was,
"Hey, look, it's GNOME dash!"
I'm told that currently, most of the menu items are hardcoded.
However, I'm also told that it shouldn't be too hard to make
configurable, and that patches to do so probably wouldn't be frowned
upon.
