We still provide Xfce 4.8 as the next major release will be in January, however all components have been updated to the latest bugfix releases. Other than that there's been mainly polishing/bugfixing/integration work, LightDM is now the default display manager reducing the dependencies on core GNOME components somewhat and the default install should now provide functionality comparable to a GNOME/KDE desktop. So you could even say it provides a viable alternative to those unsatisfied with GNOME3. Details of what's been done for this cycle are mostly on http://en.opensuse.org/User:Gberh/Xfce_ToDo though there's probably nothing spectacular from a marketing perspective. > If some of you update the wiki, it would be great - but I can also collect > what you write via email, I've already added a few sentences at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Upcoming_features#From_Xfce Feel free to improve that or to get back to me if you have any further questions. -- Guido Berhoerster -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] To contact the owner, e-mail: [email protected]
