	HAM, which should be obvious by now, stands for Hierarchical Apple Menu, and was written by Chris Derossi (of Apple).  What Chris plans to do with HAM is still up in the air, at least the last time I talked to him about it (at the WWDC).  However, as Adam mentions above, the folks at Now Software WILL be expanding Now Menus to provide similar capabilities.
