Xfce4-dev Digest, Vol 158, Issue 7

[Simon Steinbeiss]

Hi everyone,

first of all: thanks Francesco, you obviously kicked off quite some
discussion on this - lately - quiet list :)
And don't be afraid, there are lots and lots of components that need
maintainers/love!

Kudos also to André for picking up screenshooter. I use it a lot and I've
never had any issues with it.
I have collected some ideas as to what could be improved UX wise, if you're
interested to discuss it let me know.

Finally: please don't reply to digests. It totally messes up the threads in
mailman. Thanks in advance!

Cheers
Simon
