Hi all, Now that we have room on our Xfce Live DVD and I have had a bunch of experience with the Live DVD this week at customer sites, I would like to humbly request the inclusion of the follow packages. wget: Just because system-config-printer I have to test printers all the time. And no one will upgrade to Linux if I can't show them their printer will work. And it is a lot easier to use than 127.0.0.1:631 (tip: you need to give root a password to get cups to work) firefox: Need a full function browser. The one that comes with Live DVD burps on certain sites gimp: Need to take screenshots and make annotations for documentation, especially when working on routers and firewalls And if you are still speaking to me: hplip: Needed for printer support LibreOffice:: needed to recover M$ Office documents from corrupted Windows disks. And to demonstrate that if they upgrade to Linux, they don't need M$ Office. And they can play with it to see if they like it Thank you for your consideration, -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners. They malfunction when you open windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fwd: ANNOUNCE: xfwm4 4.11.3 released
by Johannes Lips 20 Feb '15

Hi all, this new release of xfwm includes a feature, which adds previews to the Alt-Tab cycling, like for example Windows 7. As far as I know this is an build time option and I thought we could discuss if we would like to enable it in fedora or not. Don't know if you could disable it in the settings, when it's available. I installed it from the copr Xfce 4.11 repo, but I think it's disabled in this build, or?

Just FYI the Xfce badge is live in fedora badges now. I awarded it to some folks I know are active in the Fedora Xfce sig. If you are a Xfce user/package maintainer and would like the badge: * Make sure you are listed on the Fedora Xfce sig page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Xfce * Mail me directly asking for the badge. I wasn't sure if everyone on the current sig page is active anymore, so I would prefer folks who are to mail me. ;) Thanks and happy Xfceing kevin
