Hi,

I think a more detailed rationale should be written.
Just a vague "being useful" argument is not enough IMO, since most

lite, while at the same time easy and intuitive, so adding things to
the default install
should be done with care.

Full Ack here.

Disk Management [gnome-disk-utility]
+1: I'm actually not sure anymore. There is no formatting tool installed by 
default? If not, I would +1 that. I'd say a tool for formatting devices is 
essential.

xfce4-clipman-plugin
-1: You don't need it to copy&paste things. Also: causes problems; In certain 
situation it will prevent things from being copied. First fix bugs, then think of 
default delivery.
the discoverability of this feature is low
That means, we should work on the discoverability, not on default delivery.

xfce4-appmenu-plugin
-1: "Is this really necessary for EVERY user?"

GUI Package Manager [synaptic]
-1: "Is this really necessary for EVERY user?"


It boils down to:
so adding things to the default install should be done with care.

Regards

Just my 2 cents.

Hi

I would +1 these (or their equivalents) for most Linux os systems,  as
they are useful.

Hi Team,

I would like to propose these additional apps be installed by default
with Xubuntu.

Disk Management [gnome-disk-utility]
As gparted isn't installed by default, this app provides the ability to
format a partition, set automount to partitions, mounting and writing of
disk images, and alot more.

Space Usage [baobab or mate-disk-usage-analyzer]
Its always useful to find out where space is being used in a drive or
folder, especially when you are running out of space.

GUI Package Manager [synaptic]
We have gnome software for an app store, apt for the terminal, but no
GUI for package management.

Panel Plugins
xfce4-clipman-plugin: Clipboard history is an excellent feature and
without this pre-installed, the discoverability of this feature is low
(i've been installing parcellite not knowing the xfce had its own
clipboard manager as its not available by default in the 'Add New Items'
dialog) and it will be used by my Windows 7 panel preset.
xfce4-appmenu-plugin: Useful plugin for those wanting a Mac or Unity
feel to their panels, and will be used by my Mac panel preset -
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16540

Regards,
Yousuf
