For those folks that want to live on the bleeding edge, I have some
Xfce 4.4beta1 repositories for Fedora development and Fedora Core 5. 

I do have exo packages, but not Thunar yet. There is someone who is
making a thunar package to submit to fedora extras now. :) 

Standard disclaimer about using beta software here. 
It could eat your data, blow up your computer and drive off to vegas
with your valuables. ;)  

for your /etc/yum.repos.d/xfce44beta.repo for development:

--- cut ---
[xfce44beta]
name=Xfce 4.4 beta1
baseurl=http://www.scrye.com/xfce-4.4b1/development/RPMS
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
--- cut ---

for your /etc/yum.repos.d/xfce44beta.repo for Fedora Core 5:

--- cut ---
[xfce44beta]
name=Xfce 4.4 beta1
baseurl=http://www.scrye.com/xfce-4.4b1/5/RPMS
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
--- cut ---

Please let me know if you see any issues with the repos or packaging.
