Good to know!

I just re-organized my tree a little. There are now two branches:
'gtk2-fixes' and 'gtk2-features'.

Please (list members) consider merging them, depending on how strict the
"feature freeze" is. :)

Can we convince the lxpanelx author to contribute and (as time goes on)
merge upstream?

I think a rebase of Alexandra's branch would be great. I'd be happy to
do it. But if you have time, that would be even better...

How does one get commit access?

Sourceforge is a bit cumbersome in my opinion. Is the "Bugs"/"Feature
Requests"/"Patches" distinction useful? All of them should eventually
have patches, right?

Good point, I'll keep it in mind.
