[Xfc-dev] Xcfe4 wrapping features ?

[Bo Lorentsen]

Hi ...

I have tried to find a way to get an overview of the components in xfce 
desktop, while waiting to be able to submit my sourceview port :-)

As I can see it, we have the following systems (in the order of 
importance as I see it) that need attention :

1. MCS setting access (cool thing, are there at standard for setting layout)
2. libexo (is it mature and do we need more ?)
3. FileDialog (will this have Thunar relation/bindings)
4. xfprint system (Does this work if GTK+ gets its own printing service ?)
5. Panel extension
6. Thunar extension

Is this about it (this really is a nice chunk of work :-)) ?

It is hard to get some understanding of what Xfce really is (yes it is 
an desktop), and I think some kind of introduction is needed somewhere. 
What is the main goal for this desktop, and how does the peaces fit 
together ?
