--- my-menu.xml, with your custom menu:

<openbox_menu>

<menu id="test-menu" label="hello there">
   <item label="bar">
     <action name="exit"/>
   </item>
</menu>

</openbox_menu>

--- debian-menu.xml, the one with your root-menu:

<openbox_menu>

<menu id="root-menu" label="openbox">
   <item label="foo">
      <action ...
   </item>
   <menu ..
   ..       more stuff in this
   ..       area i dont care about
   ..
   </menu>
   <menu id="test-menu"/> <!-- this is where your custom menu will be shown -->
</menu>

</openbox_menu>
