+ <item>The requirements for the <em>FreeDesktop menu entries</em> are now
+ documented, in particular regarding the icon size and format, when to display
+ the entry, and where to coordinate the integration of the entries in menus of
+ specific desktop systems. The Debian menu is optionally supported.
+ </item>
+<tag>9.7</tag>
+ <item>Packages already shipping <em>FreeDesktop menu entries</em> should use
+ them to associate applications with media types. Only in the absence of
+ desktop entries, a file in <em>mailcap</em> format should be used.
+ Associations between media types and files should be done via upstream
+ databases, nevertheless it is also possible to register these associations
+ directly in Debian if needed.
