+1 I think it's unneeded and should be dropped, but IMO we need to have an equivalent to MS paint. That's a discussion for later though On Wed, Apr 8, 2015 at 7:23 AM, Simon Steinbeiß si...@xfce.org wrote: Hey Xubuntu team members, we started voting on a proposal for dropping Gimp in today's

+1 for dropping Abiword/Gnumeric. Abiword's bugs and constant theming issues have been a headache for everyone. +0 (nearly +1) for including LibreOffice or some components, as a good productivity suite is definitely a plus. On Tue, Apr 7, 2015 at 8:26 PM, Jackson Doak nosk...@ubuntu.com

IMO if there is a good lightweight equivalent of ms paint which would take gimps place then i'd drop it, but if not then i'd rather keep it. On Wed, Apr 8, 2015 at 4:52 AM, David Bermúdez Guiot davidb.gu...@gmail.com wrote: -1 running it as a live-cd/usb is quite useful, you should think about
