this is afaics a tough question which might need some more thought

- xfburn (as JF said) is not stable yet and will stay -extra
- being dependent on xine I think xfmedia will stay -extra too (brian?)
- xarchiver is definately -extra since no physical work has been done to integrate it in Xfce. This will need more time

I'm not sure what the position on thunar is now that it's rapidly approaching beta (all hail Benny). Having both xffm and thunar in the core packages poses a problem that is hard to solve. I'm sure this e-mail will already stir things up - so lets think it over a bit ;^)
