ANNOUNCE: Task Manager 0.5.90 (1.0.0 beta1) -- now looking for first beta testers

[Graeme Wolfendale]

Hi Mike,

I can confirm that after a bit of messing with dependencies etc, this
package compiles and works nicely on xfce 4.6.1 running on the linux
kernel (xubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx).
As yves says tho the GUI needs some work :)

Thanks,

Graeme
