[needs-packaging] mate-menu

[Martin Wimpress]

Ubuntu MATE is an Ubuntu derivative that provides the MATE desktop environment. MATE is the continuation of GNOME2.

Ubuntu MATE has been given the green light by the Ubuntu Technical Board and Canonical IS have confirmed sufficient storage is available to host the Ubuntu MATE images. As a prerequisite to integrating Ubuntu MATE into the official build infrastructure some Ubuntu MATE packages (currently hosted in a PPA) need to be uploaded to the official Ubuntu archive.

  * mate-menu - Advanced menu for the MATE desktop.

As we are in the feature freeze now, this should either wait for after vivid release, or get a freeze exception from the release team as described in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze_for_new_packages>.

Unsubscribing sponsors for now.

Given that this package was added to the Upload Queue before the FF closed and is still there waiting for release, I feel that going through FF exemption now is a little unfair.
