This makes me nervous. If it were this easy the Xubuntu team might commit to it as well, but Micah said we don't have the resources to maintain Xfce ourselves. You can't just "do nothing" for the last two years, someone needs to keep an eye out for security problems and other failures that crop up in newer versions that need to be backported to the LTS. -- Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph || Lyz || pleia2 http://www.princessleia.com -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
