Well.. look at http://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/.. search plugins
which seem to be used/packaged by your OS but didnt see a
release/commit under panel-plugin since we switched to git, still link
against libxfcegui4, depend on panel 4.3.20 libs, have tons of pending
bugs with patches attached... you can safely consider them
unmaintained. Step up, send a mail to previous maintainer, claim
maintainership, ask for git access, enjoy :)
