The rule for ellipsis is simple: If the described action requires interruption (typically by a dialog) which requires user input, then ellipsis should be used to indicate that triggering the menu will not immediately trigger the desired action. Examples: "Save" does not need an ellipsis in general (when the file name is known) "Open..." needs an ellipsis, as one must select a file to open. "Save as..." needs an ellipsis, as in order to save the file as something, one must select a file name. "About" does not need an ellipsis, while it may open a dialog, that dialog is the desired result.
