last week at the UDS in Paris we had talked about a few Xubuntu related specifications.
Some of them were approved for Edgy some haven't (yet). The idea is that we go on as
for Dapper and try to get as much of it done.
You can see the specs here by searching for xubuntu
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+specs
and this which for some reason in not on that page
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/xubuntu-desktop-goals
The main ones are getting printing to work as well as in Ubuntu and getting more polish
to the menus. Other areas that need work is accessibility, multimedia and an ongoing
reducing of duplication of packages/apps with Ubuntu/Gnome where possible. If people step
up for doing it there may be a lighter weight WM on the CD as well.
What will change for Edgy is that we have a strict release schedule, whereas for Dapper there
was none actually. The last weeks of the cycle will be used for testing and polish, and no last minute
changes as it was the case with dapper.
