This has been discussed between the active members of the Xubuntu Team. Answers to your various questions:
- we don't have special patches for this, patches have already been pushed upstream and we are just using different build options. - if we find the time to maintain it, why should you all care ? - it makes the desktop lighter, and we don't miss any key feature And finally, I don't see why this is a problem, if you really care about this, come and contribute more :) Bye, Jérôme On Jan 31, 2008 4:49 PM, Cody A.W.
