Did a roundup of the original implementation ( http://stackoverflow.com/a/11367825/361413 ) and added XML parsing as well as autodetection of a possibly present actionbar, so it works with the native as well as a support action bar such as ActionBarSherlock.

The whole thing is now a library project togther with an example app and is described over at http://www.coboltforge.com/2012/07/tech-stuff-a-sliding-menu-for-android-very-much-like-the-google-and-facebook-apps-have-it/. Thanks to http://stackoverflow.com/users/1150188/scirocco for the initial idea and code!
