A couple of points after a quick read:

- What's the relation with the 'Projects' page? It looks like there's a 
lot of duplication. About>Features should be more of a summary of the 
desktop environment, not of every module separately, isn't it?

- I like the extra division into categories on the project page 
(Desktop, Applications, etc.).

- Libraries are not important features, skip those. The same for xfce-utils.

- Systray is part of the panel, trigger launcher is part of the goodies. 
Besides, plugins should not be mentioned separately here, anyway.

- Use capitals in headings, e.g. 'Window Manager' instead of 'Window 
manager'

It looks pretty good, though. Thanks for working on this,

	Jasper
