FWIW you goodie guys are more than welcome to host the xfce goodies on 
mocha (goodies.xfce.org) and even wiki.xfce.org. We can move all the 
goodies into a separate svn on mocha as well 
(svn.xfce.org/svn/xfce-goodies) etc. etc..

There's plenty of space and bandwidth for all of this. Time to move?
