I absolutely love Lancelot! Great work!

However – I noticed it doesn’t follow the Plasma theme. Is theme integration with Plasma planned?

The best one I've seen so far for KDE 4. Is it possible to manually change the text color of the parts applet? On my desktop it is black text on black background :-) Or is something wrong with my installation? I have opensuse 11.0 KDE 4.1 plasma theme Eleganz (should be style or elegance in English) and compiled Lancelot myself from the 1.0 source. The rest of Lancelot works like a charm :-) Thanks!

Works great in KDE 4.1! I was wondering if it was possible to have item in menu in alphabetical order (like kickoff does). It's easier to find an application when they're alling from A to Z!! Thanks!

Relay nice menu! I much prefer this one over kickoff. I have two requests for making this one perfect to me: 1) I would like the panel on the left (with the categories) to bee resized independent. (Then i make the menu wide I think the panel gets to big.) 2) When I open the menu it remember the way I left it the last time. I would like the opportunity that the menu starts by showing the "Favorites" each time I open it. Hey. Relay nice menu! I much prefer this one over kickoff.

Now, OpenOffice + Gimp + Inkscape is the only one supported. When KOffice2 comes out, I'll add it too. It will be possible later to put plasma applets in the corners (maybe even somewhere else) so that you could add a clock, or whatever. So, I (or someone else) could create an applet that shows your name so that you could put it there :) @zing
